At least 156 bodies have been recovered, and 200 people have sustained injuries. There are still 191 individuals reported missing. Rescue operations have successfully evacuated over 5,500 people from the affected areas. CM Vijayan mentioned that 45 camps have been established in Wayanad to rehabilitate more than 3,000 people.<\/p>\n<h2>Government And Military Involvement<\/h2>\n<p>Following the early warning issued by the Union government on July 23, nine National Disaster Response Force (NDRF) teams were deployed. The Kerala government has declared a two-day state mourning in honor of the victims. The army has also been actively involved, deploying 200 soldiers from the Defence Security Corps and a medical team to assist in rescue operations. Additionally, two helicopters from the Air Force Station in Sulur have been dispatched to support the efforts.&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;\n<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan has stated that no red alerts were issued for Wayanad prior to the devastating landslides.
