Rescuers search for survivors in Brazil

Rescuers are searching for survivors in the Rio de Janiero area of Brazil after landslides and floods left at least 110 people dead.



The country has been impacted by two days of torrential rains.



Officials say the toll could rise as many people are missing in the wake of the heaviest downpours in four decades.



The mayor of Rio has urged people in high-risk areas to evacuate their homes as officials warned that 10,000 houses remained at risk from landslides.



Forecasters say the rain will continue, but with less intensity than before.
