  "account": "On Tuesday, a German tourist and an Indonesian man were among two missing individuals following a landslide at a glamping resort on the Indonesian island of Bali. The incident occurred on Sunday evening due to heavy rains that caused the landslide. A four-hectare resort called Eco Park Pelaga Glamping Retreat in Petang district suffered damage, with three tents collapsing and a fourth falling into the Tukad Yeh Kilap River. Twenty-one guests managed to escape, while the two missing individuals were believed to be inside the tent that fell into the river. The resort, which houses 25 tents, is located on a steep cliff near the river. Indonesian authorities mobilized about 90 military and police personnel along with a police dog unit for rescue operations on the second day. The search has been expanded to a 2.5km stretch along the river, with teams dividing into three sectors to cover the area - one upstream from a dam, another downstream, and the third clearing mud and rocks at the campsite. The dam's floodgates have been partially closed to help reduce river flow and aid the search efforts. Heavy rain and unstable terrain have hampered the rescue efforts, which were halted on Monday due to unfavorable weather. Indonesia has entered its rainy season, and on the day of the landslide, 121mm of rain fell at Pelaga. The region experienced landslides, fallen trees, and road subsidence at 64 locations beyond Pelaga Village, with the Bali Regional Disaster Management Agency chief stating that the situation is generally under control, with the Eco Park Pelaga Glamping Retreat being the only site requiring continued search efforts.",
