It was recorded that the rain which fell on Monday caused the collapse of a huge garbage heap in Mozambique, killing 17 people.

Authorities believe that more bodies could be buried at the Hulene garbage dump on the outskirts of Maputo. According to Portuguese news agency Lusa, the garbage rose to the height of a three-storey building. It was reported that 17 people were killed and 6 homes destroyed.


The Hulene garbage dump is known as the largest garbage dump in Maputo. People often comb through the garbage, searching for food and items to sell.
