In Uganda, a massive landslide Friday at Kampala’s Kiteezi landfill has killed at least 22 people. The landslide, which buried people, livestock and homes, came after weeks of heavy downpours. Rescue workers are continuing to search the area as grieving family members await news of their loved ones, including this man who lost two grandsons in the disaster.
Makumbi Samuel Musoke: “The other day, they recovered a motorcycle belonging to one of my grandsons from there. That is why we are convinced he is right there. That is where he used to stay. His neighbor was trying to get out his motorcycle when the mud started coming down. He ran and left the motorcycle behind. That is why he remembers that my grandson should be in this area. His brother, too, was retrieved from the same place last evening.”
