Landslide buries 20 children at Malaysia orphanage

None

A landslide buried 20 children and four adults at a Malaysian orphanage Saturday where scores of rescuers were digging by their hands in soil softened by the rains to find the missing, police said.

 

The bodies of five children, ages 8 to 17, have been recovered. Six children and a 30-year-old warden who were critically injured were pulled from the mud and rushed to a hospital, district police chief Abdul Rashid Wahab said. (AP)
