“We were inside the room, and the roof started to fly, and then the house fell apart because it was it was a mud house,” said Madal, 62. “I’m not going to build anything else because I had two houses and this shop. Everything is destroyed. I don’t have the means to rebuild. I’ll just try to rebuild one home, and I cannot even do this.”
“Here in the village, as you see, 300 houses have been destroyed. Everything,” said Amisse, 37, as four teenage boys played football in the road near the fallen village sign.
