Floods, landslides kill 35 in Central Java
NEWS ITEMS
Jakarta, Indonesia (CNN) At least 35 people have died after heavy
rains and floods triggered landslides in the Indonesian province of
Central Java.

Sutopo Nugroho, spokesman for the Indonesian Disaster


Management Agency said, “The landslides buried dozens of homes,
and floodwaters inundated thousands of houses. Of the 35 killed, 31
died in landslides and four died in the flooding. An additional 25
people remain missing.”

Most of the landslides and flooding occurred in the Purworejo


subdistrict, where 11 people died and several are reported missing.
Disaster officials, the military and police joined forces with non-
governmental agencies and volunteers to rescue and evacuate
residents from affected areas.

Nugroho said that the weather anomaly is the result of several factors
-- including warm sea temperatures and the massive flow of moist air
from the Indian Ocean -- converging in Sumatra and Kalimantan,
resulting to unstable atmospheric conditions and increased rainfall.

Bridge breaks in Central Java, killing 5 people and injuring 29 others. A footbridge
packed with tourists broke at a mountainous resort on Java Island Wednesday,
killing five people and injuring 29 after they plunged into a rocky riverbed, police
and tourist officials said.
The victims were evacuated to three nearby hospitals, said Surono, an employee at
the Baturaden resort in Central Java province, adding that they fell more than 20
meters (yards) after one of the steel cables holding the small bridge snapped. Local
police, chief Emron Putra Agung said five people were killed and 29 injured. The
accident occurred as the country enjoys a weeklong holiday marking the end of the
Islamic month Ramadan, when people traditionally flock to holiday sites.

the most popular resorts on the slopes of Mount Slamet (3,428 meters, 11,246
