At least 23 people have been killed in a landslide caused by heavy rain in Cameroon’s capital Yaounde, firefighters said on Monday.

Landslides are frequent during the rainy season in Yaounde, where houses are sometimes built precariously on the city’s many hills.

The latest incident occurred late Sunday in the district of Mbankolo, northwest of Yaounde, which is home to nearly three million people.
