Flooding caused by abnormally heavy cut roads, knocked out electricity and threatened several communities in the usually bone – dry Atacama Desert region early Thursday. On Wednesday the Chilean government issued a state of emergency , putting the region under military control.
The local media quoted police as saying two people had been killed in the coastal town of Chanaral. At least 24 people were listed as missing in three communities hit by flooding, Deputy Interior Minister Mahmud Aleuy said.
On Thursday, thunderstorms with torrential rain moved in causing the Copiapo River to overflow its banks and forcing evacuations due to fears of mudslides.
