Since the december 2004 tsunami disaster this was one of the most worst disaster when a powerful earthquake rocks the country’s rice farming town while residents slept yesterday morning, killing more than 3,700 and injured thousands of people.
The earthquake struck at 5:54 a.m., local time, near the famed Borobudur temple complex, caving in roofs and sending concrete walls crashing down. Survivors screamed as they ran from their homes, some clutching bloodied children and the elderly. The worst devastation was in the town of Bantul, where 80 percent of the homes were destroyed and more than 2,000 people were killed.
The death toll may rise as many people have been missing after the earthquake.
