Residents in Puri Citayam Permai 2 housing complex, Rawa Panjang, Bojong Gede, Bogor regency, West Java, make a temporary embankment after flash flooding on Friday (3/1/2020). The flash flood triggered by the collapse of a dike at an irrigation channel at Cibeureum Lake on Wednesday (1/1/2020) killed one of the residents of the housing complex. On the third day after the collapse, the streets at the complex and a number of houses were still inundated.
