At least 19 people have been confirmed dead in a landslide in Congo-Kinshasa. The landslide occurred in the village of Bulwa in North Kivu province, which borders Uganda and Rwanda.
A local official said that around 25 women and children were doing laundry at a stream when the landslide occurred and that many of them were caught in the rubble.
The search is expected to continue on Monday.
