Indonesia earthquake: Search for survivors as death toll soars - BBC

Rescuers in Indonesia are working through a second night to try to find survivors trapped following an earthquake in West Java.

Aprizal Mulyadi was at school when the quake hit, and was trapped after "the room collapsed".

The 14-year-old said his "legs were buried under the rubble", but he was pulled to safety by his friend Zulfikar, who later died after himself becoming trapped.

The National Disaster Mitigation Agency said that 22,000 houses had been damaged, and that more than 58,000 people had taken shelter in several locations in the region.

The 5.6 magnitude quake struck a mountainous region on Monday, causing landslides that buried entire villages near the West Java town of Cianjur.

The earthquake, which struck at a shallow depth of 10km (six miles), was followed by dozens of aftershocks which caused more damage as poorly built homes collapsed.

Cucu, a 48-year-old resident, told the Reuters news agency that she survived after being crushed beneath a child.

"My instruction is to prioritise evacuating victims that are still trapped under rubble," he said.

Save the Children said that at least 80 schools had been damaged.
