Scores Of People Still Missing After Sri Lankan Landslide
Sri Lanka’s search teams are still looking for at least 134 people after torrential flooding and landslides this week have already displaced nearly 350,000 people. So far, troops have been able to rescue 150 residents, but the 134 still unaccounted for are feared dead. The continuous bad weather is thwarting the army’s efforts to reach possible survivors and is also increasing the risk of more landslides.
