A landslide triggered by heavy rains has claimed the lives of 16 individuals in the mountainous town of Alausi, located in Ecuador’s Chimborazo state. The disaster, which struck in the Andes Mountains region, has also resulted in the disappearance of seven people, while six were rescued alive. Numerous homes were buried in the ground due to the landslide, and search and rescue operations are ongoing, according to authorities.
Student-led protesters in Serbia have blockaded state broadcasters RTS and RTV, demanding management overhaul or complete shutdown due to alleged biased reporting. Tents were set up outside buildings in Belgrade and Novi Sad, blocking entry and disrupting broadcasts. RTS called the blockade illegal, while RTV’s head labeled it “terrorism.”
The protests follow a deadly building collapse in Novi Sad that killed 15 people in November 2024. Despite government reshuffles and resignations, demonstrations persist. President Aleksandar Vucic dismissed the unrest as a failed “color revolution.”
