Rescuers have found 12 bodies after a landslide hit Sukabumi district in Indonesia's West Java province on Saturday night, an Indonesian official said on Sunday.
Soldiers, volunteers and policemen were engaged in searching for the missing people under the debris of the damaged houses. With the discovery of all the victims, the operation was terminated, said Sutopo Purwo Nugroho, spokesperson of the national disaster management agency.
"All the 12 bodies have been found," Xinhua news agency quoted him as saying.
Heavy downpour triggered the collapse of a hill in Tegal Panjang village around 10.30 p.m. on Saturday and buried 11 houses, said the spokesperson.
The landslide also buried a road and as many as 300 people fled their homes to take shelter elsewhere, he said.
Landslides are common in Indonesia during heavy downpours.
