Jordskælv i Indonesien

Fase 1: Katastrofehjælp

Den 21. november blev øen Java ramt af et kraftigt jordskælv. Katastrofen, der havde en styrke på 6,9, ramte nær den store by Cianjur og ødelagde tusindvis af bygninger og forårsagede kraftige jordskred. Dødstallet er i øjeblikket på næsten 300 mennesker, og mange flere forventes at blive fundet i de kommende dage. Det vigtigste hospital er uden elektricitet, og forsyningerne er yderst begrænsede. Det anslås, at over 20 000 boliger er blevet ødelagt, og næsten 60 000 personer er blevet fordrevet.
