Dozens of people are missing after a landslide at a jade mine in northern Myanmar's Kachin state. The incident highlights lax safety measures in the area, where around 300 people died in similar accidents last year. The mine's operations had been suspended due to heavy rains during the rainy season. Rescue operations have been hampered by ongoing minor landslides, and divers have been unable to enter the pool at the mine site. Most of the missing individuals were small-scale scavengers and prospectors who had entered the block illegally.
