<p>Rains have been pounding six districts of the Indian Ocean island nation since Thursday night, and many houses, paddy fields and roads have been inundated, blocking traffic.</p>
<p>Four people died in floods while another two lost their lives in mudslides, according to the government’s Disaster Management Centre. Another five people are missing in floods and mudslides.</p>
<p>A mound of earth crashed onto a house and buried four members of the same family – the parents and two children – in Kegalle district, about 53 miles east of the capital Colombo on Saturday, officials and local media said.</p>
<p>A local television channel, Hiru, showed soldiers and villagers removing mud and debris to recover the victims. Later, the body of the daughter was uncovered.</p>
