LEDOKSARI, Indonesia - Rescuers pulled corpses from the mud in villages devastated by landslides and floods in western Indonesia, as wailing relatives watched in horror Thursday. At least 87 were killed or feared dead and tens of thousands forced from their homes, an official said.
Days of torrential rain sent mud crashing down into villages in hilly districts of Java island, and 24 hours later authorities were still struggling to get backhoes and diggers past blocked roads. Most of the victims were killed in the village of Ledoksari in Karanganyar district.
A crying relative threw herself to the ground while another held her head and screamed as mud-caked bodies were put into black bags and taken away for burial, footage on Metro TV showed.
Villagers, police and soldiers uncovered 12 of the corpses in the village on Thursday, several of them children, said Heru Aji Pratomo, the head of the local disaster coordinating agency.
