2025 Jakarta floods

In March 2025, major flooding occurred in Jakarta, the capital city of Indonesia and nearby cities within its metropolitan area which are located in Banten and West Java provinces. The flood was caused due to the overflowing of rivers that are mostly located in Bogor due to high rainfall that affected Jakarta and its metropolitan area. However, the massive development within the suburban areas such as Bogor, Bekasi, and Tangerang was also partly to blame for the flood. At least nine people have been killed, and more than 90,000 displaced. It was the worst flood in the city's modern history since 2007 and 2020.
