STORYLINE:
People gathered to remember a deadly disaster while praying at a mosque in Indonesia’s Aceh province on Thursday.
It marks 20 years since the massive Indian Ocean tsunami hit the region in one of modern history’s worst natural disasters.
Over 170,000 people died in Indonesia alone.
Hundreds of people gathered to pray at the Baiturrahman Mosque in downtown Banda Aceh. Sirens sounded across the city for three minutes to mark the time of the earthquake.
Infrastructure in Aceh has been rebuilt and is now more resilient than before the tsunami struck. Early warning systems have been installed in coastal areas to alert residents of incoming tsunamis, providing crucial time to seek safety.
The rebuilding efforts were made possible by the support of international donors and organizations, which contributed significant funds to help the region recover. Schools, hospitals, and essential infrastructure destroyed by the disaster have been reconstructed.
The powerful magnitude 9.1 earthquake off the coast of the Indonesian island of Sumatra on December 26, 2004, triggered a massive tsunami that killed around 230,000 people across a dozen countries, reaching as far as East Africa. Some 1.7 million people were displaced, mostly in the four worst-affected countries: Indonesia, Sri Lanka, India and Thailand.
