A serious landslide, measuring between 40 to 50 meters in width, took place on County Road 5697 in Kinn, Norway, between the areas of Sandvika and Nyttingnes. The police reported that a rescue mission was initiated due to the slide, with a rescue helicopter and ambulance boat deployed to the area. Initially, there were concerns regarding potential victims, but no individuals were confirmed missing following the incident.

By 16:30, local authorities announced the conclusion of the rescue operation as they found no signs of missing individuals or vehicles caught in the landslide. Traffic in the area was minimal at the time, which contributed to the positive outcome. However, damage to the road itself was reported, and contractors have begun work on repairs. A geologist is expected to assess the site further in the following day to evaluate geological stability and potential additional risks.

Kinn municipality has been notified of the incident and will take measures to communicate with residents who find themselves cut off due to the landslide. The swift response from emergency services highlights the region's preparedness for such natural events, but underscores the challenges faced by communities in remote areas during landslides and similar disasters.
