Nearly 80 percent of homes in Desa Kota Lintang Bawah, Aceh Tamiang, were destroyed by the late November 2025 Sumatra flash floods. As recovery continues from the disaster that killed over 1,000, President Prabowo Subianto vows to replace all swept-away or severely damaged houses, with daily aid shipments and military cleanup efforts underway.
One week after initiating drilling at 24 borehole sites in Aceh Tamiang to restore clean water post-flash floods, the Ministry of Public Works reports significant progress. As of January 5, 2026, eight drilling units have advanced to depths of 70 to 105 meters, tailored to local geology, with some sites now operational.
