Local authorities reported that the flood occurred after continuous rain overnight caused nearby rivers to overflow. Water levels rose quickly, inundating roads, houses, and several tourist facilities in the popular mountain resort area.
Rescue teams from the Regional Disaster Management Agency (BPBD) were deployed to assist evacuation efforts. No fatalities were reported, but several residents suffered minor injuries, and economic losses are still being assessed.
Officials stated that poor drainage and the high volume of rain contributed to the flooding. Visitors were advised to postpone travel to the area until conditions improve, as weather forecasts predict continued rainfall.
The local government is coordinating cleanup efforts and monitoring river levels to prevent further flooding. Authorities also urged residents living near riverbanks to remain alert and follow evacuation instructions if necessary.
