“The effects are mainly on the ground floor of the camp where some miners who were affected were located,” said Jaime Enrique Gómez, director of the Administrative Department of Risk Management of Antioquia, who also reportedor seven people disappeared and ten more wounded.
Colombia, a country of 50 million inhabitants, frequently suffers from avalanches and floods as a consequence of the rains.
At the beginning of February, at least 14 people were buried by the collapse of a mountain on the area where they lived, near the city of Pereira, in the coffee zone in the center of the country.
A series of landslides and floods devastated the jungle city of Mocoa in April 2017, leaving at least 322 dead, 71 missing and more than 4,500 homeless, considered the worst natural tragedy in recent Colombian history.
