Earthquake |
Indonesia |
An earthquake occurred IN JAVA, INDONESIA, about 100 km (65 miles) E of JAKARTA or about 110 km (70 miles) N of Bandung at 11:04 AM MDT, Aug 8, 2007 (Aug 09 at 12:04 AM local time in Java, Indonesia). The magnitude and location may be revised when additional data and further analysis results are available. No reports of damage or casualties have been received at this time. Because this earthquake is located about 290 km below the surface of the earth, it will have been felt strongly over a wide area, but is not likely to cause severe damage. We have received reports that the earthquake was felt in much of Java and in parts of Malaysia. |

Viet Nam |
HANOI, Aug 6, 2007 (AFP) - Heavy rains and floods in Vietnam have killed at least eight people and left 15 missing as a major tropical storm was threatening to make landfall this week, officials said Monday.
Three people were swept away by flash floods in the central highlands province of Dak Lak and one died when his house collapsed Sunday in pounding rains, said provincial flood and storm control official Phan Thi Thu Hien.
"Fifteen people are still missing in our province and authorities are searching for them," Hien told AFP early Monday.
Flooding from rains brought by the offshore storm also killed four people and inundated nearly 180 houses in neighbouring Lam Dong province, a popular tourist region, said the national committee on flood and storm control.
The direction of the storm -- Vietnam's second in this year's flood and storm season that usually peaks from August to October -- remained difficult to forecast, said a national committee official in Hanoi.
"By Monday morning, the storm was about 110 kilometres (70 miles) off the Danang coast," said the official who asked not to be named. "We cannot tell whether it will hit land yet as it seems to be travelling slowly up the coast." |
