The death toll from the floods last week in the eastern Democratic Republic of Congo has risen to nearly 400.

Officials say many people remain missing.

The heavy rains were especially harsh for the villages of Bushushu and Nyamukubi.

The numbers of the dead are forcing villages to bury the victims in mass graves.

Congo's government has declared Monday a national day of mourning.

The heavy rains have also fallen recently in Uganda and Kenya.
