He explained that the hunger disaster in Agandugume District and Lambewi District in Kapubaten Puncak began in May 2023 until its peak in August 2023. According to him, it was caused by the air temperature being so cold that it resulted in rotten and dead plants.
The weather factor, continued Izak, caused residents to experience food difficulties.
There are also many residents of Agandugume and Lambewi Districts in neighboring areas, such as to Sinak and Kuyawage in Lanny Jaya Regency. The distance from Agandugume to Sinak is about two days on foot.
Based on the information gathered, the impact of extreme weather that occurred in Agandugume and Lambewi also resulted in the death of six people, one of whom was a premature baby.
"Kodam XVII Cenderawasih will assist with security, even though the two districts are crossing KKB (armed criminal groups)," said Izak.
