Flash floods and landslides hit Sumatra, Indonesia, claiming ten lives and leaving ten missing.

Torrential rains triggered disasters in West Sumatra's Pesisir Selatan regency, displacing 46,000 people.

Rescue operations were hindered by adverse weather conditions.

At least 14 houses were buried, 20,000 homes flooded, and eight bridges collapsed.

Deforestation exacerbates Indonesia's vulnerability to landslides during the rainy season.
