Myanmar landslide: At least 30 missing at jade mine
At least 30 people are reported missing after a mudslide at a jade mine in northern Myanmar.
The mountainous town of Hpakant in the Kachin state is home to the world's biggest and most lucrative jade mines.
Many of those affected are believed to be locals digging through the mud along the cliffs, many of whom work and live in abandoned mining pits.
Lethal landslides are common in the area when heavy monsoon rain pummels Myanmar between May and October.
At least 162 people died in a landslide in the same area in July 2020, while an accident in 2015 left more than 110 dead.
