In a written statement received on Friday, the Head of Data and Information Center of National Disaster Mitigation Agency (BNPB) Sutopo Purwo Nugroho noted that the longest river in Java Island has been overflowing for the past six days since Sunday (Dec. 15).

"Hundred villages in 15 sub-districts are flooded, thereby affecting 8,562 family heads. The flooding has forced 1,675 residents to evacuate their homes," Nugroho added.

The four flood-related deaths were reportedly children. They were Mustain (3) of Payaman Village, Andika Sanca Putra (13) of Kedungbondo Village, Riva Mariska (7) of Bungas Hamlet Guyangan Village, and Maharani Putri (1.5) of Semanding Village.

يٰبَنِيْٓ اٰدَمَ لَا يَفْتِنَنَّكُمُ الشَّيْطٰنُ كَمَآ اَخْرَجَ اَبَوَيْكُمْ مِّنَ الْجَنَّةِ يَنْزِعُ عَنْهُمَا لِبَاسَهُمَا لِيُرِيَهُمَا سَوْاٰتِهِمَا ۗاِنَّهٗ يَرٰىكُمْ هُوَ وَقَبِيْلُهٗ مِنْ حَيْثُ لَا تَرَوْنَهُمْۗ اِنَّا جَعَلْنَا الشَّيٰطِيْنَ اَوْلِيَاۤءَ لِلَّذِيْنَ لَا يُؤْمِنُوْنَ
Wahai anak cucu Adam! Janganlah sampai kamu tertipu oleh setan sebagaimana halnya dia (setan) telah mengeluarkan ibu bapakmu dari surga, dengan menanggalkan pakaian keduanya untuk memperlihatkan aurat keduanya. Sesungguhnya dia dan pengikutnya dapat melihat kamu dari suatu tempat yang kamu tidak bisa melihat mereka. Sesungguhnya Kami telah menjadikan setan-setan itu pemimpin bagi orang-orang yang tidak beriman.

(QS. Al-A'raf ayat 27)
