Amawakawaka ayalelwe ukuba ashiye isiqithi saseVanuatu njengentaba-mlilo esongela ukuqhushumba

Abantu abayi-11,000 bayalelwa ukuba bashiye isiqithi eVanuatu apho intaba-mlilo edubulayo isoyikisa ukuqhuma.

Abasemagunyeni kwiziqithi zePasifiki bagqiba kwelokuba abanakubeka ubomi babo emngciphekweni, ke bayalela ukuba kuphunywe ngenkani kwisiqithi saseAmbae.

I-Ambae sesinye seziqithi ezinabantu abangama-65 kwisizwe sePasifiki malunga nekota enye yendlela ukusuka e-Australia ukuya eHawaii.

Amagosa aphakamise umlinganiso womsebenzi wentaba-mlilo ukuya kwinqanaba lesine kwimpelaveki, kwinqanaba apho inqanaba lesihlanu limele ukuqhuma okukhulu. NgoMvulo amagosa abhengeze imeko yongxamiseko kwaye ebesusa abantu kufutshane nentaba-mlilo kwezinye iindawo zesiqithi.

Umkhosi waseNew Zealand ubhabhe phezu kwentaba-mlilo ngolwe-Lwesibini kwaye wathi iikholamu ezinkulu zomsi, uthuthu kunye namatye e-volcanic ayephuma kule crater.

Abanye babahlali sele bemkile ngokuzithandela kwesi siqithi. Amagosa athi awanandlela yokwenyani yokuqikelela into eza kwenziwa ngulo mlilo emva koko kwaye abo baphumayo kuya kufuneka bayilinde.

Isithethi sikarhulumente u-Hilaire Bule uthe ukukhutshwa kuya kwenziwa ngesikhephe kwaye kuya kuqhubeka kude kube yi-6 ka-Okthobha. Uthe abahlali baya kufuduselwa kwiziqithi ezikufutshane. Amagosa abeka iziza ezibini kwiPentekoste Island, utshilo, apho abantu abaza kuhlala kwizakhiwo zikarhulumente okanye kwiindawo zeenkampu zethutyana.

UDickinson Tevi, osisithethi seVanuatu Red Cross Society, uthe iarhente yohlangulo ibithumela amanzi nezixhobo zokufihla kwisiqithi iAmbae.

"Abantu bayayoyika ingxolo eqhubekayo," utshilo. Abaqinisekanga kwaye bayoyika. ”

U-Bule uthe urhulumente wabele i-200m vatu (i-1.9m yeedola) kumzamo wokufuduka kwaye uthumela amapolisa angama-60 ukuba ancede abantu bahambe kwaye baqinisekise ukuba akukho kuphanga.

"Silungiselele iinkanyamba ngokubeka amaziko okuphuma kwesi siqithi kodwa asikakulungelanga ukuqhuma kwentaba-mlilo," utshilo uBule. "Urhulumente kufuneka abeke umgaqo-nkqubo ukuze abonelele oku kwixesha elizayo."

IVanuatu ilikhaya elinabantu abamalunga nama-280,000 kwaye ithambekele kwiintlekele zemvelo, ezinesiqingatha sentaba-mlilo esebenzayo kunye neenkanyamba eziqhelekileyo kunye neenyikima. Ihleli “kwisangqa somlilo” sePasifiki, iarc yeziphene zenyikima ezijikeleze uLwandlekazi lwePasifiki apho iinyikima kunye neentaba-mlilo ziqhelekile.
