On August 11, a massive landslide on National Highway 5, near Nigulsari, led to the raining of boulders and rubble on several vehicles, including a bus. After eight days of challenging rescue efforts, 28 deaths and 14 injuries have been confirmed, although initial reports had stated that even more people may have been buried under debris.
