According to officials, 33 individuals have lost their lives as a result of the rains since November, which have also caused rivers to overflow their banks and landslides.
Although the neighbor had yelled at the woman to leave the house, she may not have been able to get her kids in time, the neighbor told the local newspaper Correo del Sur.
There were also almost twenty injuries.
The Incachaca dam’s water levels are another area of concern for the province of La Paz authorities.
On Sunday, it was inspected by government specialists and the mayor of La Paz, a city situated downstream of the dam.
Although the reservoir’s water level had “reached 100%,” according to Mayor Iván Arias, the water was now draining well, thus he did not anticipate “any major consequences downstream.”
