Best Answer

During a landslide, any loose soil that is on a steep slope, will be moved due to the shaking. As there are usually villages and towns etc. at the bottom, the soil and maybe even rocks will hit the town and cause damage such as buildings being brought down and harm to the people.

A landslide is a natural disaster that occurs when a mass of earth or rock moves downhill rapidly, typically due to heavy rainfall, earthquakes, or other factors. This movement can cause significant damage to property and pose a threat to human life.
