A massive landslide in Thaphyu Kone village, Myanmar, caused by severe rainfall, has killed at least 32 people, with dozens still missing and rescue efforts ongoing.
The disaster buried homes and residents, leading to heartbreaking accounts from survivors, including Nyo Nyo Win, who lost nine family members and stated, 'Everything is gone.'

Macron condemns those who 'sought to bring down the Republic' after rioting mars nationwide protests
Yesterday 12:56Key points summarised by AI
President Macron condemned widespread rioting and looting during nationwide protests, blaming far-left activists and criminals for the "unrestrained violence" and vowing accountability for those who "sought to bring down the Republic."
Over 2,400 arrests were made as protests against rising living costs and poor school conditions escalated, causing extensive damage to public buildings and businesses in cities like Paris, Limoges (where City Hall burned), Marseille, and Lyon.
The unrest, which organizers hoped would revive the "yellow vest" movement, saw political leaders trade blame, with Macron instructing prefects to protect public buildings and potentially ban future protests to prevent further disorder.
