🌧️ Landslides and Flash Floods Strike Java Island
Hey Amigos! Indonesia's beautiful Java Island is facing some tough times. 🌴 Heavy rains since last week have caused rivers to overflow, leading to devastating landslides and flash floods. 😔
In the Sukabumi district of West Java province, more than 170 villages have been hit hard. Mud, rocks, and trees have tumbled down the mountainside, impacting small hamlets and communities. 🌊🌳 Lt. Col. Yudi Hariyanto, who's heading the rescue efforts, reported that 10 people have sadly lost their lives, and 2 are still missing. Our hearts go out to them and their families. 💔
Over 3,000 people have been forced to leave their homes and seek shelter in temporary government facilities. 🏘️ Authorities are also warning nearly 1,000 more residents to evacuate, as extreme weather continues to threaten over 400 houses. Safety first, folks! 🙏
Let's send positive vibes to the people of Java Island as they navigate through this challenging time. 🌟 Stay tuned for more updates, and remember, we're all connected in times like these. 🤝
