At least six people including four women and a child died after a rockslide destroyed and buried many homes in Yemen’s northern Hajja province on Friday, the September 26 website reported.
About eight other people are still under the rubble and a rescue mission is trying to recover them, it said.
More than thirty families have been displaced in the Kohlan Afar district and are in urgent need for help, the website said, adding that other homes are likely to face more landslides since continuous rainfall has affected rocks on the mountain there.
Heavy rain has continued to fall in Yemeni cities in the past few weeks including the capital Sanaa where some parts were hit in the past few hours.
