(ANSA-AFP) - PORT MORESBY, 28 MAG - La Papua Nuova Guinea sta evacuando circa 8.000 persone dai villaggi vicino al luogo della frana che si è staccata nella notte tra giovedì e venerdì scorsi in una zona montuosa e quasi inaccessibile. Secondo le prime stime circa 2.000 persone sono rimaste sepolte nello smottamento. "Stiamo cercando di evacuare", ha detto l'amministratore provinciale di Enga, Sandis Tsaka, aggiungendo: "Ogni ora si può sentire la frattura delle rocce: è come una bomba o uno sparo e le rocce continuano a cadere". (ANSA-AFP).
