Ribuan orang telah mengungsi setelah hujan lebat selama berhari-hari melumpuhkan Jabodetabek, membanjiri rumah-rumah dan ruang usaha. Sementara itu, pejabat yang baru terpilih dan petugas penyelamat bergegas mengatasi apa yang dianggap sebagai "salah satu banjir terburuk" dalam beberapa tahun terakhir.

Luapan Sungai Bekasi di Jawa Barat menggenangi hampir seluruh wilayah Kota Bekasi, mengganggu keseharian kota satelit Jakarta yang padat penduduk itu. Infrastruktur publik penting lenyap ditelan banjir berkedalaman lebih dari tiga meter.

Dalam salah satu insiden paling dramatis di daerah itu, air berlumpur menerobos dan memenuhi seluruh lantai dasar Megamall Bekasi. Banjir itu terjadi setelah sebagian tanggul sungai di dekatnya runtuh pada Selasa pagi. Peristiwa itu adalah yang pertama kali terjadi sejak 2017. Menurut laporan Kompas TV, puluhan orang terlihat terjebak di lantai atas pusat perbelanjaan tersebut.

Wakil Wali Kota Kota Bekasi Abdul Harris Bobihoe mengatakan bahwa tim SAR telah dikerahkan untuk mengevakuasi pengunjung mal yang terjebak. “Beberapa sudah dievakuasi dan beberapa masih di dalam, bahkan para pedagang juga masih terjebak. Kami sedang melakukan yang terbaik sekarang,” katanya.
