Local authorities in the Democratic Republic of the Congo's east claim that a landslide on Sunday morning killed at least 19 persons.
The death toll is expected to increase, according to a representative from the village of Bulwa in the North Kivu province.
He claimed that after the earth gave way beneath a group of women and children doing laundry in a mountain stream, some of them were buried.
On Monday, the hunt for additional casualties will begin again.
