**A landslide at a beach in southern Portugal has killed at least one person and injured another two, officials say.**They say a 60-year-old man was crushed to death when part of a cliff collapsed on the popular Maria Luisa beach in Albufeira in the Algarve.
Two people were reported to be still missing after the incident which occurred at midday, amid fears that some people may be under the debris.
Diggers were later deployed at the site as part of a rescue operation.
A witness quoted by Portugal’s Lusa news agency said that “part of the cliff came down around noon and rocks crashed onto the beach up to the sea causing much panic”.
A 38-year-old woman - one of the two injured people - was in a critical condition, Portuguese emergency services said.
The names and nationalities of the victims were not immediately released.
Portuguese President Anibal Cavaco Silva visited the beach, which is popular with local and foreign tourists.
