Beijing (AFP) March 21, 2019

Rescuers have retrieved the body of a final missing person in a northern China landslide, bringing the death toll to 20, local officials said Thursday.

The incident last Friday in Shanxi province flattened several residential buildings and a public bathhouse. Authorities initially reported 10 deaths and 10 missing people.

"As of 11:22 am (0322 GMT) on March 21, the last missing person in the... landslide has been found," the Shanxi Fire Department said in a statement on its official social media page.

"There were 20 casualties in this incident."

The post was accompanied by pictures of orange-clad rescuers carrying what appeared to be a filled body bag on a stretcher.

The cause of the landslide has not been confirmed.
