Heavy rains across Southeast Asia have triggered deadly landslides, killing dozens in Indonesia and Vietnam. In Indonesia’s Central Java province, at least 18 people died and several remain missing after landslides buried homes in Cilacap and Banjarnegara. Rescue teams are struggling to recover victims buried under thick mud, with excavators deployed to clear debris. In Vietnam, six people were killed and 19 injured when a passenger bus was buried by a landslide on the Khanh Le Pass between Da Lat and Nha Trang. The incident, caused by torrential rain, trapped passengers as rescuers battled blocked roads and continuing downpours. Scientists warn that climate change is intensifying Southeast Asia’s rainy season, increasing the frequency and severity of floods and landslides. Both Indonesia and Vietnam are among the world’s most flood-prone nations, with large populations living in high-risk areas. The recent disasters follow Typhoon Kalmaegi, which earlier devastated parts of the region, underscoring growing climate-related vulnerabilities.
