At least 600
people are still missing following a mudslide and flooding that devastated
parts of Sierra Leone's capital, Freetown.
President
Ernest Bai Koroma earlier pleaded for "urgent support", saying entire
communities had been wiped out with nearly 400 people confirmed dead after the
mudslide in the Regent area and floods elsewhere.
The Red
Cross has warned it is a race against time to find survivors. A mass burial of victims has also been
planned to free up space in mortuaries.
