At least 18 people have died and more than 90 are missing after a landslide on Indonesia's main island of Java.
Heavy rain caused the landslide near Jemblung village in central Java. Rescuers are searching for survivors but a lack of heavy equipment left many forced to dig with their bare hands until tractors and bulldozers arrived. Disaster agency officials said rescue teams had taken about 40 people to hospital, of whom four were said to be in a critical condition. Relief efforts were suspended on Saturday afternoon after more rain.
