The natural disaster affected four countries in the region, including Indonesia, Sri Lanka, Thailand, and Malaysia. The highest death tolls were recorded in Indonesia (502 people) and Sri Lanka (335 people), where much of the damage involved entire neighborhoods being buried under layers of mud. The article, written by Federica Marsi and Fiona Kelliher, also details the breakdown of casualties and places the event within the broader context of a global climate crisis news service.
