Oh no! 😢 Over the weekend, Indonesia's Sumatra Island faced devastating landslides and flash floods after torrential rains poured down. Rescuers have recovered 16 bodies from beneath tons of mud and rocks in the mountainside villages. Six people are still missing, and hope remains that they'll be found safe.
Mud, rocks, and trees came crashing down mountainsides as rivers burst their banks, tearing through four hilly districts in North Sumatra province. The disaster washed away houses and destroyed farms, leaving many without homes.
Our hearts go out to everyone affected by this tragedy. Let's keep them in our thoughts and hope for quick recovery efforts. 💔
