Flash Flood Aftermath In Aceh Tamiang - Indonesia

On December 14, 2025, in Aceh Tamiang, Aceh, Indonesia, the phrase "The Heart of the World is Bleeding" aptly encapsulates the aftermath of the flash floods that occurred during this period. In the wake of the devastation, residents gathered tree trunks that had been uprooted and displaced from the Leuser Ecosystem, a consequence of Tropical Cyclone Senyar that may be characterised as a "dark harvest." Rudi Putra, the founder of the Leuser Conservation Forum, articulated that the magnitude of this devastation transcends a typical natural disaster; it serves as a poignant indicator of the deterioration of our natural defences against the global climate crisis.
