PNG mudslide kills at least 8
Papua New Guinea's wet season has claimed at least eight lives after a landslide in Morobe province, north of Port Moresby.
Landslides are common in Papua New Guinea at this time of year.
But a religious gathering turned to tragedy when a build up of floodwater in the mountains caused rocks, mud and boulders to come crashing down.
Eight bodies have been recovered but 13 people are thought to have died.
Road access to the area has also been cut off hampering the recovery effort.
