<p>Another 15 injured people have been rescued and admitted to Buluganya Health Centre.</p>
<p>The Uganda Red Cross Society said 13 bodies have been recovered and the rescue effort is continuing.</p>
<p>Local media reported that authorities expect the death toll might rise as high as 30.</p>
<p>The landslides happened after heavy rains on Wednesday night in the mountainous district of Bulambuli, where such incidents are common.</p>
<p>Local officials said an excavator would be brought to assist in the rescue efforts, but the roads were covered in mud and the rain was still falling, according to a reporter at the scene.</p>
<p>The affected area covers about 50 acres, with homesteads and farmlands spread downhill.</p>
<p>The Prime Minister’s office issued a disaster alert on Wednesday stating that heavy rains across the country had cut off major roads.</p>

Two rescue boats also capsized on Wednesday during a mission on the River Nile, where Pakwach bridge was submerged.</p>
