Indonesia Landslide: At Least 10 Dead, Dozens Missing

In Indonesia, rescue teams are battling against time to locate approximately 80 people missing after a devastating landslide in West Java province. At least 10 deaths have been confirmed so far. The landslide was triggered by heavy rainfall that began the previous day and is expected to continue for the next 24 hours, complicating rescue efforts. Authorities are warning of potential new floods and landslides. A witness reported that it was the first time they had seen such devastation in their village, while unstable ground is hindering the use of heavy machinery in the searches. Indonesia has been severely affected by floods and landslides in recent months, with around 1,200 people losing their lives in Sumatra two months ago.
