A different kind of tsunami

At least five people were drowned in Gaza yesterday when a cesspool collapsed and unleashed a river of sewage and mud. The problem had been predicted back in 2004. The sewage 'system' was built for 50,000 people; it now 'accommodates' 190,000.

And there may be more tsunamis of sewage as another, larger system seems to be getting ready to erupt.
