Situation

A flash flood struck villages in Kota Agung Barat and Sumberejo districts of Tanggamus regency, Lampung, at about 02:00 WIB on 22 September 2026. Indonesia’s National Disaster Management Agency (BNPB) reported 150 households affected.

The BNPB assessment recorded 53 houses, two education facilities, three places of worship, 50 hectares of plantation land, five hectares of agricultural land and one bridge affected. Floodwater had receded and residents had returned home by the latest 22 September update. The source did not publish an affected-person total, a displacement total or a casualty figure; none is inferred here.
