FREETOWN, SIERRA LEONE - AUGUST 17 : The coffins of victims of a mudslide are carried to the cemetery on trucks draped with the Sierra Leone flag in Freetown, Sierra Leone on August 17, 2017. 600 people are still missing and Sierra Leone buried at least 300 victims of devastating floods on Thursday, as fears grew of more mudslides and accusations of government 'inaction' over deforestation and poor urban planning mounted. With the aim of clearing the overflowing central morgue, burials began in Waterloo, a nearby town where many victims of the Ebola crisis that hit the nation in 2014 were also laid to rest.
