A severe flood emergency has unfolded across Arunachal Pradesh after intense rainfall triggered flash floods, landslides and widespread damage to homes, roads and critical infrastructure. Several regions have been hit by relentless downpours, with Yazali recording 72.8 mm of rainfall within just 24 hours. The extreme weather led to a sudden surge in water levels, triggering flash floods that swept through multiple areas of Lower Subansiri and adjoining districts. The disaster has severely affected connectivity across the state. Landslides have blocked roads at several locations, while a key highway bridge was reportedly washed away, disrupting transportation and complicating rescue and relief efforts. Authorities are racing to assess the full extent of the damage as access to some affected regions remains difficult. WATCH

Mumbai has been battered by heavy overnight rainfall as the southwest monsoon arrived in the city nearly 13 days later than its usual onset date, triggering a fresh wave of waterlogging, traffic challenges and weather alerts across the region. The India Meteorological Department (IMD) has issued a red alert for Mumbai, warning of intense rainfall, thunderstorms, lightning and gusty winds. In addition to urban flooding concerns, the heavy downpour has triggered incidents such as a landslide at Malshej Ghat between Wash Point and Umbrella Point. Authorities have also reported tree falls and structural damage in certain residential pockets, including a wall collapse in Vikhroli West. Emergency services have been deployed to multiple locations as civic teams work to clear debris, restore traffic flow and ensure public safety. In one incident, a car was reportedly crushed under a fallen tree during the intense rainfall. WATCH
