The family started the search for the farmer after the neighbours, who were scheduled to meet him, enquired about his whereabouts. The family found out that the victim had not returned from the plantation and his motorbike was found parked on the side of the road.

They then killed the snake, and it turned out the victim was inside its stomach," Dirman said. His body was later taken to his house. According to the residents, it was the first incident when a person was swallowed by a python in the area. Though snakes are not uncommon in Indonesia, the reptiles have frequently appeared in Indonesian villages in recent months to prey on livestock.

Indonesia to Deploy Submarine Optical Cables for Tsunami Detection
Ahmed Emam Indonesia is set to enhance its national tsunami early warning system by integrating submarine optical cable technology, aiming to improve the accuracy and reach of detection in seismically active regions, according to a report by TV BRICS, citing "Antara News". The initiative will be incorporated into the warning system currently managed by the Indonesian Meteorology, Climatology, and Geophysics Agency (BMKG). BMKG Head Dwikorita Karnawati emphasized the importance of advancing technological innovation to bolster the country's disaster preparedness infrastructure. 'This technological innovation research is needed to strengthen the existing tsunami early warning system,' Karnawati said. While traditionally used for telecommunications and data transfer, submarine optical cables can also detect variations in underwater pressure and wave activity—key indicators of potential tsunami events. Given Indonesia's expansive marine territory and the prevalence of undersea cables, this dual-use application offers a cost-effective and wide-reaching solution. 'If this optical cable can detect tsunamis, then sensors can be more evenly distributed throughout the region, including marine areas that currently do not have a detection system,' Karnawati noted. Addressing the growing threat of natural disasters—particularly the devastating impact of earthquakes and tsunamis—has emerged as a key focus of international cooperation. In May 2025, BRICS member countries convened a ministerial meeting in Brasília to coordinate responses to climate-related disasters. During the session, member states agreed on a joint declaration and a 2025–2028 action plan, outlining priorities such as strengthening early warning systems, investing in resilient infrastructure, and integrating local knowledge into disaster risk manag strategies. read more UAE's Lunar Mission Delayed to Tomorrow Twitter Lifts Trump's Account Ban Scientists Find Evidence Of 10،000 Black Holes Surrounding The Center Of The Milky Way Galaxy Greenhouse In Antarctica Able To Grow Vegetables Without Soil Or Sunlight Moving Over China: U.S. Is Again Home to World's Speediest Supercomputer Technology The 10 most expensive cars in the world Technology Top 10 fastest cars in the world Technology Lasers Could Make Computers 1 Million Times Faster Technology Smart technology taking control of our lives News China Launches Largest Ever Aircraft Carrier Sports Former Al Zamalek Player Ibrahim Shika Passes away after Long Battle with Cancer Sports Neymar Announced for Brazil's Preliminary List for 2026 FIFA World Cup Qualifiers News Prime Minister Moustafa Madbouly Inaugurates Two Indian Companies Arts & Culture New Archaeological Discovery from 26th Dynasty Uncovered in Karnak Temple Business Fear & Greed Index Plummets to Lowest Level Ever Recorded amid Global Trade War Arts & Culture Zahi Hawass: Claims of Columns Beneath the Pyramid of Khafre Are Lies News Flights suspended at Port Sudan Airport after Drone Attacks News Shell Unveils Cost-Cutting, LNG Growth Plan Videos & Features Video: Trending Lifestyle TikToker Valeria Márquez Shot Dead during Live Stream
