There are fears that the death toll will rise further. Rescuers were later seen using excavators to comb through a mountain of scattered rubbish at the site as local residents gathered nearby.

Guinea's Prime Minister Mamadou Oury Bah visited the scene to assess the situation and oversee the search efforts. Neighbourhood leader Lancine Sylla had earlier told the AFP news agency he feared there would be a heavy death toll. Another landslide at the site killed 10 people in 2017.
