Description
Speaking in front of his new house in southern Tajikistan, Jamoliddin Makhamilyev recalls spending "a week digging everything out" after a landslide destroyed his old home. The 65-year-old's family is one of many evacuated from the nearby areas most exposed to natural disasters, as part of a state-run programme. Authorities in the ex-Soviet country believe hundreds of thousands live in regions threatened by landslides, floods and earthquakes, and have made moving them to safe areas a priority.
