Tuesday evening in Himachal Pradesh started like any rainy day… until the hillside had other plans. Continuous downpour triggered a landslide that buried a private bus carrying passengers through a winding mountain road. 😔
At least 15 people have been confirmed dead, and one person remains missing as rescue teams race against time. Using excavators and bare hands, workers are painstakingly clearing tons of debris in hopes of finding survivors. 🙏🌧️
Local officials say the non-stop rain softened the soil, sending tons of earth careening down onto the moving bus. The sudden collapse caught drivers and commuters off guard—highlighting just how unpredictable mountain roads can be during the monsoon. 🗻🚧
