Indonesia, Thailand race to find missing as flooding toll tops 600

Indonesian and Thai authorities raced on Sunday (November 30, 2025) to clear debris and find hundreds of missing people as the death toll from devastating floods and landslides across Southeast Asia topped 600.

Heavy monsoon rain overwhelmed swaths of Indonesia, Thailand and Malaysia this week, leaving thousands of people stranded without shelter or critical supplies.

At least two areas of Indonesia’s worst-affected Sumatra Island were still unreachable on Sunday (November 30), and authorities said they had deployed two warships from Jakarta to deliver aid.
