In Brief

A landslide at a campsite on New Zealand's North Island near Mount Maunganui killed two people, including a Chinese citizen. Six people, including children, are missing. Rescue teams with dogs are searching.

A landslide struck a campsite in the Mount Maunganui area on New Zealand's North Island on Thursday, January 22, at around 9:30 a.m. local time. It was triggered by record rainfall, burying motorhomes and buildings.

According to a Polish source, two people died, including a Chinese citizen, and six are missing, among them children. A German source says the official number of missing has not been confirmed, and search efforts continued through the night.

The rescue operation is hampered by unstable ground and the scale of the disaster. Rescue teams with dogs are continuing the search.
