OSLO — Rescue workers were still searching on Thursday for survivors after a landslide that destroyed homes in a Norwegian village, leaving 10 people missing, including two children. Quick clay is a sort of clay found in Norway and Sweden that can collapse and turn to fluid when overstressed. On Thursday rescue workers searched two homes which had collapsed, looking for missing people, but found nobody. “The remainder of the homes in the area are completely destroyed,” chief of operations Roger Pettersen told a press conference. “It’s a dramatic experience to be here,” Solberg told reporters.
