A predawn landslide tore through Pasir Langu village on Mount Burangrang's slopes at 2 a.m. on January 24, 2026, burying 34-48 houses and a marine training camp under up to 8 meters of mud while residents slept. The disaster has claimed at least 85 lives, including at least 23 members of Indonesia's elite marine force who were conducting border patrol training, with search teams now in their 12th day manually excavating a 2-kilometer debris field using over 3,675 personnel, tracker dogs, drones, and heavy equipment despite unstable terrain.[1][2][7]
