26 killed, several feared dead as rain fury rages across states

Nine people were killed in Arunachal Pradesh in two different incidents of landslides while four people died in Meghalaya in three different rain-related incidents. In Assam, eight people died in landslides and floods while four people died in Mizoram due to a landslide. Tripura recorded one death on Saturday.

The relentless rainfall triggered a series of deadly landslides, flash floods, and widespread devastation across the northeastern states. While rescue operations are underway across multiple locations, the IMD has issued red alerts for several areas, warning of more rain over the next few days.

At least nine people were killed in separate landslides across Arunachal Pradesh as flash floods continue to affect parts of the state. A vehicle carrying seven people, was hit by a landslide in Bana-Seppa stretch of NH-13 in East Kameng late on Friday night and their bodies were recovered on Saturday, officials confirmed.
