Snippet:
The footage captures the moment the ground suddenly gives way at the Zamboye artisanal gold mine, engulfing people gathered nearby. Freddy Metchoubatchou was on site when the landslide struck on 18 August and filmed the collapse from close range. The mine is in Nana-Mambéré prefecture, about 50 kilometres from Baboua near the Cameroonian border.
