Torrential rains in northeast India resulted in a deadly landslide that crushed and killed three soldiers with six more missing, the Indian army said Monday, APA reports citing AFP.
Flash floods and landslides in the annual monsoon rains have killed at least 30 people in India’s northeast states in the past week. The landslide that killed the soldiers took place on Sunday evening in the mountainous state of Sikkim, which shares a border with Nepal and China, and hosts a large military presence. The army said in a statement that the “massive landslide, triggered by heavy rains, struck an army camp” around dusk on Sunday.
