Rescue efforts are ‘very challenging’, Australian minister says, as aid agencies work to send supplies to remote part of Enga province
Satellite images have revealed the scale of Friday’s devastating landslide in Papua New Guinea, as rescue efforts continue in the remote north of the country.
The images show the huge damage inflicted on a village in Enga province, which PNG’s National Disaster Centre said buried an estimated 2,000 people. The satellite pictures show mountains of debris covering buildings and blocking roads, which officials have said is hampering relief efforts.
