At least 30 people were missing after a landslide hit a coastal highway in the Brazilian state of Parana. Two people died while rescue teams were able to pull out six people alive from the mud.
The landslide hit the BR-376 highway in the city of Guaratuba on Monday after days of torrential rains.
The rescue teams are continuing their search operations amid bad weather with the danger of more landslides. Several people, including the local mayor, have been saved from the mud.
Emergency services released images that show a section of the highway also got swept away in the massive smear of mud. About 20 cars and trucks were also swept away, authorities said on Wednesday.
The mayor of the coastal town of Guaratuba was among the six people rescued by the team.
