Anticipation of the Lapindo mud barrier breach

An aerial photo shows heavy machinery operating to elevate and reinforce the Lapindo mud containment dike at point 10D, Siring, Porong, Sidoarjo, East Java, on Friday (7/10/2026). The elevation and reinforcement are to strengthen the structure of the Porong dike retaining wall, which has been seeping due to land subsidence and pressure from mud material in the containment pond.
