A landslide in Chongqing, China, has left 8 people dead and 34 missing so far.

On the morning of July 17 (local time), a mass of rocks and soil collapsed from a hillside in the Fengshui region of Chongqing, burying people in the area.

The collapse is attributed to ground weakened by recent heavy rainfall. Chinese authorities have deployed a large number of personnel and equipment to carry out search and rescue operations.
