Africa-Press – Mozambique. <\/strong><\/span>Five miners have died after a gold mine collapsed during flooding in central Mozambique\u2019s Manica province, public radio reported Tuesday.<\/p>\n

The accident in Sussundenga district, around 170 kilometres (105 miles) west of the provincial capital Beira, occurred on Monday at a mine owned by a group of small-scale self-employed miners.<\/p>\n

The head of the mine, Afonso Muagara, blamed the victims for operating during the rainy season when mining is prohibited.<\/p>\n

\u201cNobody knows why they were there given that no mining activity is allowed when the rain falls,\u201d he said on radio.<\/p>\n

Manica province was hit by Tropical Storm Ana, which pummelled the region last week, claiming 86 lives in Mozambique, Madagascar and Malawi.<\/p>\n
