LOS ANGELES, Dec 7 — Spectacular lava fountains burst from Hawaii’s Kilauea volcano on Saturday, US volcanologists said, nearly a year after one of the world’s most active volcanoes began its latest eruptive phase.
KUALA LUMPUR, Sept 20 — The number of flood evacuees at temporary relief centres in Sabah dropped to 892 people from 273 families this afternoon, compared with 1,476 people from 459 families earlier this morning.
In a statement, the State Disaster Management Committee (JPBN) said the victims are currently placed at seven relief centres across three districts — Penampang, Membakut and Papar.
“The number of evacuees in Membakut (390) and Papar (190) has decreased, while Penampang still records 303 victims.
“The total affected villages remain at 53, with 24 in Penampang, 20 in Papar and nine in Membakut,” it said.
In Sarawak, JPBN reported that flood victims at the Dewan Suarah Marudi relief centre in Miri rose to 17 people from five families as of 4pm, compared to 13 people from three families this morning.
Meanwhile, according to the Department of Irrigation and Drainage’s (DID) Public Info Banjir portal, river levels at Long Teru and Marudi stations remain at danger level despite no rainfall. — Bernama
