Leuser's Ecological Disasters - Indonesia
On December 29, 2025. Residents use small wooden boats (sampans) to cross the river after the main bridge was destroyed, following devastating flash floods triggered by Tropical Cyclone Senyar, which destroyed key infrastructure in Lubuk Sidup, Sekerak District, Aceh Tamiang Regency. To date, Tropical Cyclone Senyar has claimed the lives of at least 1,167 people across Indonesia and more than 1,400 victims in three countries in the Asia-Pacific region, with losses estimated at US$19.8 billion. This disruption of vital access routes highlights a growing trend of environmental disasters that increasingly threaten the fragile Leuser Ecosystem, as emphasised by Sayed Zainal, Director of the Sustainable Forest Advocacy Institute.
