'A huge amount of sand fell down and buried the people on Thursday afternoon. The rescue team found five dead bodies this morning', Health Ministry crisis centre head Rustam Pakaya said. The collapse occurred in Indonesia's south-east province. Landslides and floods are common during the rainy season in Indonesia. -- REUTERS, AFP | |
