At least 30 people were killed in a massive landslide in Guinea on Sunday when a mountainous open-air landfill collapsed and buried nearby shacks, trapping numerous victims beneath a mass of garbage.

The incident happened at Dar Es Salam, the largest waste dump in the West African country's capital, Conakry, according to a report from The Associated Press (AP).

Guinea News reported that the weight of the waste caused a three-story building beneath it to cave in.

Authorities said heavy rainfall also washed over the refuse overnight, creating hazardous conditions at the landfill, according to the AP.

Six people were seriously injured and several homes were destroyed in the incident, according to reports. Officials launched a search-and-rescue operation to find any survivors.

The AP reported that the landfill was originally scheduled to close Sunday after officials warned of hazardous conditions, citing Lt. Col. Baldé Mamadou Bailo, the sanitation officer for the military engineering battalion.

The decision followed reports of a similar incident at the landfill in recent years, raising concerns about its safety.

As a precautionary measure, residents who lived near the site had also been given eviction notices and were forced to vacate the area, the AP said.

However, many people remained nearby at the time of the disaster, according to reports.

"We will ensure that the remaining families are relocated elsewhere," Dienabou Touré, the minister of territorial administration and decentralization, said at the scene, according to the AP.

Reuters reported that the landfill suffered a similar incident in 2017, when torrential rains caused a mudslide that killed at least eight people.

• Phil Collins hints at the possibility of making new music in the future, despite health struggles and a recent relapse into alcohol addiction.

When Genesis wrapped up their hugely successful The Last Domino? reunion tour in March 2022, it wasn't just the end of the road for one of the most successful British bands of the last 50 years, it also marked Phil Collins' own swansong as a live performer.

The drummer-turned-singer had been suffering from health issues for years, including severe nerve damage, a foot condition that left him unable to walk properly, and periods of alcohol addiction that resulted in him coming close to death after being hospitalised in 2024.

But in a new interview with Prog, Collins reveals that his career may not be completely over. Asked if he will ever make any new music, he doesn't rule out the prospect.

"Um, I'm never gonna say no now," says Collins, whose last album was 2010's covers set Going Back. "I've got my little studio still, and I'd like to get down there and just mess about and see what happens. There are some things I could finish. And other things which are finished. So, it's not beyond the realms of possibility."

Collins also tells Prog about his relapse into alcohol addiction after several years of sobriety, and the resultant hospitalisation in 2024 that left him on life support.

"I went through some pretty dark times," he admits. "I was never 'falling over' drunk. That wasn't it. It was just drinking 'normally', as one would drink water. I'd wake up, have a glass of wine. Watch TV, read a book, have a glass of wine. And suddenly… Some people's insides can't take it. Mine broke down.

"My manager, Tony, called all the kids to Switzerland to have a meeting about me and my future. Because at one point it was kind of life support. Kidneys and liver were waving the white flag. I was close to dying, and I hadn't realised. I just thought I was sick. Well, really dark times. Spent a lot of time in hospital. Then, pulling through that, I've had five operations on this knee. And drop foot. That's why I have the crutches, just to make sure – I don't want to fall over.

Collins adds that he's in better health today than he has been in a long time. "Physically, now, I reckon I'm A1, 100%. I've worked at it. Haven't drunk for three years. I do physio three times a week, to bring me up to speed. All is good!

Collins's debut solo album, Face Value, is reissued on September 8 as an expanded 4-LP 45th anniversary edition.
