In Arunachal Pradesh, five Army personnel were reportedly missing after a flash flood swept through the Pasu Pani area near Anini in Dibang Valley district, while four people were killed in a landslide at a road construction site in Upper Subansiri district, officials said on Saturday. Officials of the State Emergency Operations Centre said that both incidents occurred late on Friday evening following heavy rainfall. According to officials quoted by various media reports, in Dibang Valley, a flash flood swept away two shelters of the 5th Grenadier at Pasu Pani Army Camp. Seven personnel were washed away, of whom two were rescued, while five remain missing. Search and rescue operations are underway, with Army teams, SDRF, ITBP, GREF, Arunachal Pradesh Police and local volunteers reportedly involved in the effort. Army aviation assets have also reportedly been deployed to support rescue operations and medical evacuation. The search operation is continuing despite adverse weather and difficult terrain,the PRO Defence, Tezpur, said.

In Upper Subansiri district, four people were killed after a major landslide struck the Keojaring-Byaching road construction site, burying several workers under the debris. The deceased have been identified as Tadu Baki, Taji Rai, Markosh Basumatari and Babul Ali. The body of Ali has been recovered. All concerned agencies are being coordinated for the safe and effective conduct of the search and rescue operation.
