The impact of Friday's landslide (May 24, 2024) in the isolated Enga province of Papua New Guinea was greater than initially thought. There are an estimated 150-plus houses now buried.

At least 670 people died.

Local residents have been forced to abandon 250 homes in areas not directly affected by the landslide after cracks began to appear in the ground.

There were a number of challenges facing teams trying to recover bodies, including reluctance by some grieving relatives to let heavy machinery near their loved ones.

People are using digging sticks, spades, large agricultural forks to remove the bodies buried under the soil.

Debris from the landslide, which includes large boulders, trees and displaced soil, is up to 8m (26ft) deep in some areas.

There is only one main road into Enga Province and Care Australia said debris had fallen across large swathes of it, limiting access to the rescue site.

Tribal violence along the main road could complicate relief efforts, according to Mr Aktoprak.

The unrest was unrelated to the landslide, adding: "In one day alone, a total of eight persons had been killed, five business stores and 30 houses had been burnt down."

Papua New Guinea has a population of more than 11.7 million people. With around 850 indigenous languages, it is the most linguistically diverse country on Earth, according to the World Bank.
