Landslides in Indonesia Leave 23 Dead and Dozens Missing

Heavy rains on Bali and Java triggered deadly landslides, with ongoing risks of further flooding and disasters in the region.

At least 23 people have died and 11 are reported missing following landslides on the Indonesian islands of Bali and Java.
Heavy and persistent rainfall, combined with strong winds, has been identified as the cause of the landslides.
In Bali, two separate landslides in the Klungkung district and Denpasar killed eight people and left one missing, complicating rescue efforts due to steep terrain and poor weather.
On Java, flash floods and landslides in the Petungkriyono district claimed 15 lives, with nine individuals still unaccounted for.
Authorities have cautioned residents near hillsides and rivers to remain vigilant as continued rains heighten the risk of additional natural disasters.
