Flooding in Chile
Days of heavy rainfall swelled Chile's rivers, causing deadly widespread floods as the country sees the worst weather front in a decade.
The deluge blocked roads, prompted an evacuation in the centre of the country and a red alert has been issued by The Meteorological Directorate of Chile in some regions, warning of further heavy rains and the possibility of landslides.
The rains come just a few months after a period of wildfires amid a severe drought that destroyed hundreds of homes and left dozens of people dead.
