A strong earthquake on Indonesia’s main island of Java killed at least eight people, and damaged more than 1,000 buildings, officials said on Sunday.
The US Geological Survey said the magnitude 6.0 temblor struck off the island’s southern coast early Saturday afternoon. It was centered 45km south of Malang District in East Java province, at a depth of 82km.
This was the second deadly disaster to hit Indonesia in a week, after Tropical Cyclone Seroja caused a severe downpour that killed at least 174 people and left 48 still missing in East Nusa Tenggara province.
