Landslide Hazards Amplified: Emergency Management Insights from Recent Seismic Events

The seismic activity near Lima has once again highlighted how vulnerable hilly terrains are to secondary disasters such as landslides triggered by earthquakes. The sudden destabilization caused earth masses to cascade down slopes rapidly—endangering homes situated on or below these inclines—and obstructing critical transportation routes needed for emergency access.


This incident reinforces lessons learned from other global earthquakes where landslide risks compounded human suffering significantly—for instance:
