From flooding in Tanzania which has killed 47 people to the eruption of a large volcano in Indonesia which has killed 11 hikers with 12 people still missing, here are today’s biggest stories from around the world.<\/p>\n

Heavy flooding and landslides in Tanzania kill 47 people<\/h2>\n

At 47 people have been killed and more than 80 have been injured after Tanzania’s northern Hanang district was hit by heavy flooding and landslides from Mount Hanang.<\/p>\n

The African country’s president\u00a0Samia Hassan has now deployed national security forces to help with rescue efforts, where homes and infrastructure have also been impacted. In some parts of the country, crops have been washed away taking with them a large part of people’s livelihoods.<\/p>\n

Tanzania’s meteorology agency has warned the rains will continue this month. Flooding is one of Tanzania’s biggest problems killing tens of thousands of people each year.<\/p>\n

Mount Marapi erupts with 11 hikers found dead and 12 more missing<\/h2>\n

Eleven people have died in\u00a0Indonesia\u00a0in the wake of a violent volcanic eruption on the weekend –\u00a0and the death toll may further rise as several more are missing.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

The hikers were found dead near the crater of the\u00a02,891-metre-tall Mount Marapi, one of the most active\u00a0volcanoes\u00a0in the country.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

A total of 75 climbers were in the area when the eruption happened on Sunday. After three people were rescued on December 4, the search for the remaining missing 12 had to be suspended as it was deemed “too dangerous” due to another eruption.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The latest group of people to be rescued reported some burns and were found to be “weak” following the scary incident, according to\u00a0Abdul Malik, head of the Padang Search and Rescue Agency.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

A total of 49 climbers, many of whom also suffered burns, were evacuated from the area earlier on the same day.<\/p>\n
