During the 2022 flooding season in NSW, Australia, Lismore experienced one of the worst flood events seen in years.

On March 2025, a powerful 7.7-magnitude earthquake struck Myanmar's central Sagaing Region, followed by a 6.4-magnitude aftershock. The disaster has resulted in over 3,600 confirmed deaths and over 4,800 injuries. Relief efforts have faced significant challenges, primarily due to government-imposed access restrictions, limited funding, and constrained connectivity.
