Provincial Government of DKI Jakarta held New Year's 2026 celebrations without fireworks, focusing on joint prayers and raising Rp3.1 billion in donations for disaster victims in Sumatra. Events at Bundaran HI, TMII, and Ancol drew thousands despite rain, featuring music performances and a drone show themed on empathy. The city was cleaned up before dawn thanks to thousands of sanitation workers.
A fire tore through homes in Masiphumelele, Cape Town, on the afternoon of January 20, 2026, leaving more than 600 people homeless. Community members climbed onto shack roofs to pass buckets of water in a bid to contain the blaze, but over 100 homes were gutted. The Living Hope organization is calling for donations of essential items to aid the victims.
