Disaster Situation

The northern coastal regions of Java Island have experienced an escalation in the extent of persistent flooding that has lasted for over a week. Considerable human and material loss of life and property is a risk in this densely populated agricultural region. Additionally, this catastrophe occurs during a sacred month in Indonesia, which is extremely distressing. We intend to monitor it. Floods that have been ongoing for more than a week have gotten more prevalent in Java Island's northern coastal districts. According to reports/news, the event began in several districts between March 13 and 15. Flooding has not subsided as of today due to heavy rainfall.
