KAMPALA: Landslides in several villages in eastern Uganda have killed 15 people and left more than 100 unaccounted for, police said on Thursday. The East African country has been deluged by heavy rains in the past few days, with the government issuing a national disaster alert after reports of flooding and landslides. Landslides late on Wednesday hit the village of Masugu in the eastern Bulambuli district, about five hours from the capital, Kampala.
