Sad........Over 300 people died after a mudslide in Regent, near Freetown, Sierra Leone.
The incident happened when a hillside in the Regent collapsed on Monday morning, following a night of heavy rain, sending mud sliding down and covering houses where people were sleeping.
Below is today's report by Humanitarian Affair Officer at UN Iddrisa Conteh:
