Brazil Deadly Landslides
Rio de Janeiro, Brazil | February 17, 2022 - ongoing

As night fell Wednesday, 78 deaths had been confirmed from landslides that ravaged the city of Petropolis in Rio de Janeiro state.

But even as families begin burying their relatives, still no one has the faintest clue as to how many bodies remained trapped in the mud. The government hasn't provided a figure of the number of disappeared people, and recovery efforts are far from over.
