A 20-year-old tourist, Roni Josua Simanjuntak from Medan, Indonesia, is feared dead after a massive wave dragged him into the sea during a photo session at Kedung Tumpang Beach on October 13. Terrifying videos circulating on social media capture the moment he posed for a picture at the shore, only to be knocked off balance by the powerful wave that swept him away. Search and Rescue (SAR) teams have been deployed to locate him, but efforts have been hampered by dangerous waves reaching heights of 2 to 4 meters. Roni was visiting the beach with friends who were swimming near the rocky shore when the conditions suddenly turned perilous. Authorities plan to continue searching for up to seven days, but if Roni is not located by Sunday, October 20, the operation may be called off. As of now, he remains missing as concerns for the young man's safety grow. Residents Evacuated As Indonesia’s Ruang Volcano Erupts in North Sulawesi, Videos Surface.
