On the afternoon of February 18, a landslide struck Alausí, a town in the Chimborazo province of Ecuador, originating from the upper part of the Shushilcon community. The heavy flow of muddy water, carrying stones and vegetation, caused significant damage, injuring at least three individuals and affecting several homes and roads in the area. This incident has reignited fears among the residents, bringing back haunting memories of a tragic landslide in March 2023 that resulted in over fifty fatalities and widespread destruction of property. Residents recounted the panic experienced during the recent landslide, reminiscent of past tragedies. Ana Macas, a local resident, described the frantic scene where people were shouting for everyone to evacuate as the mountain threatened to collapse. She was among those who fled towards the park, leaving her vehicle behind and recalling the overwhelming fear that dark historical events can invoke. Memories of similar disasters linger heavily in a community still healing from previous losses. The Alausí landslide serves as a stark reminder of the region's vulnerability to natural disasters, exacerbated by heavy rainfall and geographical conditions. As recovery efforts begin, there is an urgent call for improved infrastructure and early warning systems to better protect residents from future incidents. The community's collective memory of past tragedies highlights the need for continued support and resilience-building in the face of environmental challenges that threaten their safety and well-being.
