Cyclone Arnab Causes Landslides in Odisha, Six Dead and Rescue Efforts Ongoing

Analysed 1 Nov 2026·22 sources analysed·Odisha, India·Social
Cyclone Arnab Causes Landslides in Odisha, Six Dead and Rescue Efforts OngoingPreviousNext

Cyclone Arnab caused severe landslides in Odisha's Gidipabali village, killing six people and leaving around 10 missing. Rescue teams, including NDRF and ODRAF, continue searching through debris despite difficult terrain and lack of road access. Survivors have been relocated to relief centers, with some urging government assistance for resettlement. Authorities are considering controlled blasting to clear boulders and remain vigilant for further landslide risks due to ongoing heavy rains and Cyclonic Storm Murasu.
