Investigators are now working to understand the precise conditions that led to the slide. While landslides are not uncommon in mountainous areas, this event was particularly severe. Early assessments suggest a combination of saturated soil, recent weather patterns, and natural geological instability may have contributed. However, the remote location and dangerous terrain continue to hamper a full investigation.
For the families of those killed, explanations offer little comfort. Their lives were altered in an instant by an event no one could predict or prevent. Loved ones described the victims as ordinary people simply going about their day—commuting, traveling, living their lives—when tragedy struck. Grief counselors and victim support services have been made available as the community struggles to process the loss.
