This is very tragic. At this point there are clearly no survivors to be rescued, it is a mass grave. My heart goes out to the families and the loved ones of those taken and those almost take.
-
2,000 is unbelievable. Very tragic.
-
Unbelievably Tragic
-
May those who passed rest in Love and Light 💖🕯
-
May God help and bless those poor people.
-
Prayers for those affected.
-
That is very sad.
-
As one who has worked in that country, landslides are not uncommon in such a mountainous region. No where for villagers to build away from them.
-
How did that area contain 2000? That's crazy!
-
Heart breaking news. There's just so much pain and suffering in the world today. If it isn't people hurting people, it's the weather going a little insane. Kinda gets you wondering about things. All we can do is pray 🙏
-
Prayers for this Papua New Guinea village 💔🙌🏾💔
-
I had no idea FOX practiced journalism. Well done.
-
not trying to be insensitive, but it doesnt seem to add up, looking at the size of the landslide from the air. UN says 600, they say 2000. I wonder if they get more aid packages if they have higher numbers?
-
Those numbers are tragic but I’m trying to understand the population density here. My area has had multiple same-size or larger landslides that only killed 10-30 people. The first estimate I saw that said it was around 200 which seems more accurate to me. Regardless, any loss of life is tragic
-
One thing is a bit weird. When you look at the Location of the Landslide on satellite Images (before the Landslide happened), there are only around 5 Houses and the Landslide itself isn't that big. How is it possible that so many People are burried? Also they talk about the entire Villages destroyed but there are only a few houses and only forest. Did i miss something or can Someone explain it?
-
I'm sad for the lost lives and livelihood. But confused how a village with about 4000 population, fears about 2000 buried, but also reports about 4000 survivors..
-
So very sad.. Praying strength and comfort for all who loss loved ones in this tragedy 🙏🏾✝️
-
Google Earth the landslide coordinates and explain where there were at least 5,000 residents here: 5°22′26″S 143°23′19″E
-
In the gray area at the top of the slide, I see what looks like a giant ghostly face looking down in horror at the devastation below.
-
there are never ever 2000 burried. pls do look the videos and satellite photos.. there only were few houses there on the site before. somethings wrong with this number
