A rare and powerful tropical storm has left a trail of devastation across Indonesia’s West Sumatra, where floods and massive mudslides have killed more than 500 people and left over 500 others missing. Rescue teams are racing against time, clearing thick mud, searching for survivors, and retrieving bodies as improved weather reveals the scale of the catastrophe. With more than 28,000 homes damaged and 1.4 million people affected, authorities warn that the toll could rise further as remote villages remain cut off and debris-blocked roads slow relief efforts.<br />#indonesia #flood #apt
