Flash floods in Indonesia have killed sixteen people, and six more are still missing, according to officials. Torrential rains pushed mud, rocks, and trees down a mountain, causing rivers to overflow their banks. This resulted in extensive devastation to four hilly districts in North Sumatra province, with houses washed away and fields damaged.
Rescuers, together with police and troops, are using farm equipment and others to look for the missing and recover the bodies. They've even taken to utilizing their bare hands in these efforts. The rainy season, which lasts from October to March, frequently causes landslides and flooding in Indonesia.
