Mudslides:

A Pressing Environmental Challenge Mudslides, also known as landslides or debris flows, are a serious natural disaster that can have devastating consequences for communities around the world.

These events occur when heavy rainfall, rapid snowmelt, or other triggers cause soil, rock, and other materials to become oversaturated and suddenly slide down steep slopes, often with tremendous force and speed.

The primary causes of mudslides are both natural and human-influenced.

Heavy precipitation, earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and other geological events can destabilize slopes and lead to slope failure. - https://yourdailyweather.com/blog/mudslides-causes-mitigation/?unique_id_6ed565fc
