Uganda's mudslide victims buried

**Burials are being held in Uganda for people killed in a mudslide which swept away three villages in the east of the country on the slopes of Mount Elgon.**The BBC’s Joshua Mmali at the scene said in some cases entire families were being buried.

About 90 bodies have been recovered; more than 260 people are still missing.

The UN refugee agency says it is supplying tents and plastic sheeting for up to 5,000 people left homeless by the mudslide.

The army says the search operation will take months and that some of the bodies may never be found.

The region, about 275km (170 miles) north-east of the capital Kampala, often suffers from landslides but this is an unusually high death toll.
