At least nine persons have died as a result of flooding in the capital city of Jakarta, Indonesia as torrential rainfall pounded the capital city and raised flood waters to dangerous levels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The downpour, accompanied by heavy storms, lightning and thunder, started on the 31st of December 2019 and continued into the morning of the New Year, Jan 1st, 2020. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

“This is definitely not a bright start of the New Year for residents of Jakarta Indonesia,” one resident sighed.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

A young boy has been electrocuted during the flooding while an elderly couple was drowned in their home. Several persons also died from a landslide triggered by the flood waters, while at least 3 have died from hypothermia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It’s a sad state for the people of Jakarta. Thousands of people are homelesss. Thousands of people are in need of blankets, clothes, food and medicine. – Ladytha Borine – Resident of Jakarta who escaped the flood hit area.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

At least one airport has been shut down in the capital city while the electricity across the entire city has been turned off to prevent electrocution of people in the water. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Authorities are working hard to relocate residents but they still need help. It’s one hell of a challenge. We’ve had flooding before in Jakarta but it has never been this high.” – Resident of Jakarta, Indonesia.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Photos of Jakarta show submerged cars and waterlogged homes. People living near to rivers are in greater danger of the flood waters.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
