well, you are watching bbc news, lots of election coverage on our website. let us use this opportunity to bring you up—to—date with some of the other new stories. the government in papua new guinea is warning nearly 8,000 people are at risk from further landslides, after a mountainside collapsed in enga province on friday. hundreds of people were buried in the landslip and conditions are getting worse. these pictures are from the united nations development programme. the provinicial administrator says
1:44 pm
continued movement of rock and debris is making it difficult for rescue teams to operate. rescuers say it is increasingly unlikely that victims will be found alive, as local people are joined by support and aid teams from around the world to try to help. locals scrabble in the scar on their land as they try to find relatives buried beneath the landslide. they're using their hands and whatever tools they can. but the un says around 2,000 people were buried alive here in the mountainous enga province around 600 kilometres north—west of the capital port moresby.
1:45 pm
this creates a lot of challenges around control and use of land. we've seen tribal fights happening over these sorts of issues in the past, so, we're really concerned about that. limestone and debris is still falling. the terrain is difficult and heavy rainfall isn't helping. aruna iyengar, bbc news.
