Powerful quake off Indonesia kills 20, sparks mass evacuations
Rescuers combed through debris for survivors on Saturday after a powerful earthquake struck off Flores island in eastern Indonesia, killing at least 20 people and sending thousands fleeing. As the full scale of the disaster unfolded, rescue official Fathur Rahman told AFP at least 20 people were confirmed dead from four different towns on the island, popular with tourists. “From the reports we have received, 20 people have died, six are injured, and two are still buried,” Fathur said by telephone from a boat on his way to Nagekeo regency, the hardest-hit area. Two people were known to be trapped alive under rubble in the neighbouring Manggarai regency after the 7.7-magnitude jolt. “Our focus will be on locating the victims who are buried under the rubble” said Fathur, adding the rescue effort had been complicated by landslides cutting off several roads. Residents in Nagekeo, the area closest to the epicentre, raced for higher ground as the sea retreated earlier Saturday — a possible sign of an approaching tsunami, AFP journalists witnessed. A tsunami warning was later lifted but people were warned not to return to damaged buildings for fear that aftershocks may bring them down. Dozens of aftershocks have already been felt, the strongest measured at a magnitude of 6.1. ‘My family is safe’ Yohanes Babo, 56, a resident of Nagekeo, said he was at a market when the earth started shaking in the early morning hours. “The shaking was strong. Thankfully, we were already outside the house,” he told AFP. “People were panicking, running here and there. We’re evacuating for the time being … and trying to get to the hills,” he said, adding: “My family is safe. No one was harmed.” The epicentre of the shallow quake was located just off the north coast of the island, about 68 kilometres (42 miles) northwest of the coastal town of Ende, US and Indonesian authorities said. Rescuers pull one dead body from the rubble of a building that partly collapsed at the port of Maumere. Fathur said two people were evacuated alive from the debris and “one was found deceased”, according to video footage released by the agency. The full extent of the damage is still being assessed. Lukas Lotar, a resident of Maumere about 2,500 kilometres (1,553 miles) east of Jakarta, recounted how the earth “suddenly started to shake and I panicked”. “Patients also fled the hospital, the jolt was big. I saw some walls were cracked,” Lotar, a hospital customer service official told AFP. The stricken area is comprised mostly of towns and villages with few, if any, high-rise buildings. Monitoring sea level Indonesia’s Meteorology, Climatology, and Geophysics Agency (BMKG) initially warned of possible tsunami waves following the quake and urged people to get to higher ground. Long queues of people could be seen evacuating towns on foot, by motorbike and car, some piled into the back of pickup trucks. “We have ended (the tsunami warning) but we will keep monitoring the sea level,” said BMKG earthquake and tsunami director Wijayanto, who like many Indonesians goes by one name. Indonesia and neighbouring countries experience frequent earthquakes due to their location in the Pacific “Ring of Fire” — an arc of intense seismic activity stretching from Japan through Southeast Asia and across the Pacific basin. Flores was struck by a 7.7-magnitude earthquake in 1992, which triggered a tsunami and resulted in around 2,500 deaths. Among Indonesia’s history of deadly quakes is a devastating 9.1-magnitude tremor in 2004 that struck off the coast of Sumatra and triggered a tsunami that killed 220,000 throughout the region, about 170,000 of them in Indonesia. The Boxing Day tragedy was one of the deadliest natural disasters in recorded history. In 2018, a powerful quake shook the island of Lombok and several more tremors followed over the next couple of weeks, killing more than 550 people on the holiday island and neighbouring Sumbawa. Later that year, a 7.5-magnitude quake and a subsequent tsunami in Palu on Sulawesi island left more than 4,300 people dead or missing.

Indonesian rescuers search for survivors as 7.7 quake death toll rises to 38
Rescuers combed through debris for survivors after a powerful earthquake struck off Indonesia’s Flores Island on Saturday, killing at least 38 people, according to a disaster official. Suharyanto, head of Indonesia’s national disaster mitigation agency, said 13 people were injured, two of them seriously. “Victims are trapped in several buildings,” said Suharyanto, who like many Indonesians uses one name. “These will be the initial targets of the disaster response teams,” he told a news conference, adding that two helicopters and a plane were being readied to assist in rescue operations. European Union chief Ursula von der Leyen offered help from the bloc’s Copernicus Earth observation satellites. “Europe stands ready to deploy Copernicus, our eyes in the sky, to support search and rescue efforts. Indonesia, we stand with you,” she wrote on X. Dozens of houses and other buildings were damaged when the 7.7-magnitude quake hit the popular tourist island in Indonesia’s east. Suharyanto said about 2,000 people had evacuated. “I have never felt an earthquake this big,” Yulian Juita Ekalia, who lives in Ruteng city more than 100 kilometres (60 miles) west of the epicentre, told AFP by telephone. “It felt like we were on a trampoline; it was really scary,” said the 37-year-old university lecturer, who was jolted awake at around 5:30 am (2130 GMT on Friday). “As I rushed to get outside, everything in the house fell down: the television, my son’s trophies, the dish racks, suitcases on top of the wardrobes. When I got outside, my son and neighbours were already there, screaming in fear.” Rescue official Fathur Rahman told AFP the focus has shifted to locating victims who may be buried under rubble, but rescue efforts have been complicated by landslides cutting off roads. Residents in Nagekeo, an area close to the epicentre, raced for higher ground as the sea retreated early Saturday – a possible sign of an approaching tsunami, AFP journalists witnessed. While a tsunami warning was lifted, authorities urged people not to return to damaged buildings for fear that aftershocks may bring them down. Hundreds remained outside by lunchtime as dozens of aftershocks continued shaking the island, the strongest measured at a magnitude of 6.1. Fleeing in panic Yulian said she had dragged her stove outside and was cooking there, fearing further tremors. Outside a nearby hospital, she said she saw patients being treated under emergency tents. Seeing images online of her university badly damaged, Yulian said she was “grateful that the quake happened on a Saturday morning when there was no campus activity… I can’t imagine what it would have been like if it happened while we were all there.” Nagekeo resident Yohanes Babo, 56, said he was at a market when the earth started shaking in the early morning. “The shaking was strong. Thankfully, we were already outside the house,” he told AFP. “People were panicking, running here and there. We’re evacuating for the time being… and trying to get to the hills,” he said. The epicentre of the shallow quake was located just off the north coast of the island, US and Indonesian authorities said. The extent of the damage is still being assessed. The area is largely rural with few, if any, high-rise buildings. Long queues of people were seen evacuating on foot, by motorbike and car, some piled into the back of pickup trucks, after the initial tsunami warning issued by Indonesia’s Meteorology, Climatology, and Geophysics Agency.

Rescuers search for survivors as Indonesian 7.7 quake death toll rises to 47
Rescuers combed through debris for survivors on Saturday after a powerful earthquake struck off Indonesia’s eastern Flores island, killing at least 47 people, according to disaster officials. The national disaster management agency (BNPB) raised the death toll from 40 late on Saturday, while rescue official Fathur Rahman said 50 people were injured in the 7.7-magnitude quake. Suharyanto, who leads the BNPB, said earlier that people were trapped in several buildings. “These will be the initial targets of the disaster response teams,” he said. Nearly 160 houses, dozens of educational and health facilities and other public buildings were damaged when the earthquake struck the popular tourist island in Indonesia’s east, the BNPB reported. The International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies said preparations were underway to bring aid to some 2,000 people in temporary shelters. The government sent 50,000 aid packages weighing a total of 275 tonnes to the area, and European Union chief Ursula von der Leyen offered help from the bloc’s Copernicus Earth observation satellites. “Europe stands ready to deploy Copernicus, our eyes in the sky, to support search and rescue efforts. Indonesia, we stand with you,” she wrote on X. ‘Like we were on a trampoline’ “I have never felt an earthquake this big,” Yulian Juita Ekalia, who lives in Ruteng city — more than 100 kilometres west of the epicentre — told AFP by telephone hours after the tremor. “It felt like we were on a trampoline; it was really scary,” said the 37-year-old university lecturer, who was jolted awake at around 5:30am (2130 GMT on Friday). “As I rushed to get outside, everything in the house fell down: the television, my son’s trophies, the dish racks, suitcases on top of the wardrobes. When I got outside, my son and neighbours were already there, screaming in fear.” Rescue official Fathur told AFP the focus was on locating victims who may be buried under rubble, but rescue efforts have been complicated by landslides cutting off roads. Many Flores inhabitants were left without electricity and telecommunications. Residents in Nagekeo, an area close to the epicentre, raced for higher ground as the sea retreated early Saturday — a possible sign of an approaching tsunami, AFP journalists witnessed. While a tsunami warning was lifted, authorities urged people not to return to damaged buildings for fear that aftershocks may bring them down. Hundreds remained outside hours later as dozens of aftershocks shook the island, the strongest measured at a magnitude of 6.1. Waves of up to 1.6 metres were reported in some coastal regions of Flores, according to Indonesia’s BMKG geological agency. Fleeing in panic Yulian said she had dragged her stove outside and was cooking there, fearing further tremors. She said she saw patients being treated under emergency tents outside a nearby hospital. Nagekeo resident Yohanes Babo, 56, said he was at a market when the earth started shaking in the early morning hours. “The shaking was strong. Thankfully, we were already outside the house,” he told AFP. “People were panicking, running here and there. We’re evacuating for the time being… and trying to get to the hills.” The epicentre of the shallow quake was located just off the north coast of the island, US and Indonesian authorities said. The affected areas have few, if any, high-rise buildings. A second, deep onland quake was measured at a magnitude of 6.9 near Pematangsiantar on Sumatra island — thousands of kilometres away — some 12 hours after the Flores tremor. There were no initial reports of damage or casualties, and no tsunami alert was issued. Indonesia experiences frequent earthquakes due to its location in the Pacific “Ring of Fire”, an arc of intense seismic activity stretching from Japan through Southeast Asia and across the Pacific basin. Flores was struck by a 7.7-magnitude earthquake in 1992, which triggered a tsunami and resulted in around 2,500 deaths. A devastating 9.1-magnitude tremor in 2004 struck off the coast of Sumatra and triggered a tsunami that killed 220,000 throughout the region, about 170,000 of them in Indonesia, in one of the deadliest natural disasters in recorded history. Condolences President Asif Ali Zardari expressed deep sorrow over the loss of lives in the earthquake. “On behalf of the people of Pakistan, the President extended heartfelt condolences to the bereaved families and expressed solidarity with the Government and people of Indonesia in this difficult hour.” He further said that Pakistan was ready to extend all possible assistance.

Search for Indonesia quake victims underway as country marks independence day
Rescuers in eastern Indonesia will comb through collapsed buildings on Monday to find anyone who might still be trapped under rubble after a deadly quake that killed at least 53 people, as the country marks its independence day reeling from the impact of fresh tremors. Saturday’s disaster in the province of East Nusa Tenggara was the country’s deadliest since a 2022 quake killed hundreds in West Java. The official death toll was at 53 as of late Sunday. The quake also caused landslides and blocked roads across Indonesia’s southernmost province, including the regions of Sikka and Manggarai. Thousands were evacuated, with many sheltering in tents outdoors and afraid to return to their homes due to fears of aftershocks. A vilager cooks next to a tent in an open field in Marapokot, Nagekeo, East Nusa Tenggara, on August 17, 2026, following a 7.7-magnitude earthquake. — AFP There were nearly 1,600 aftershocks in the province as of Monday, local media reported the geophysics agency chief as saying. The agency reported a 5.6 quake in Nagekeo region, near the initial epicentre, on Monday morning. In the parking lot of a damaged health centre littered with tents and hospital beds in a village close to the quake-affected Ende region, Firmus Woge, a 64-year-old farmer, was being treated for his asthma, aggravated by the panic setting in as the buildings around him continued to rattle. He said he had difficulty breathing overnight. Though better on Monday morning, the fresh aftershocks again took his breath away. “I felt better last night and this morning but it’s getting worse again after this morning’s quake,” he said, gasping for breath. Benedictus Sokar, 50, an earthquake survivor, lies on a hospital bed while receiving treatment in a makeshift tent outside the Ben Mboi Manggarai regional hospital in the aftermath of an earthquake, in Ruteng, Manggarai regency, East Nusa Tenggara province, Indonesia, August 17, 2026. — Reuters Search to continue The search will continue on Monday, authorities said. Fathur Rahman, chief at the rescue office in Maumere, Sikka’s capital, told Reuters on Monday the search will focus on aerial monitoring for anyone missing. Rescuers will use an extrication device and a helicopter, Fathur said, adding there were no reports of people missing and no challenges hampering the search. Authorities readied planes to deliver aid such as food and tents, the chief of the country’s disaster mitigation agency Suharyanto said late on Sunday. The quake damaged around 500 homes, he said. Siti Saudah Daso, a mother of three, reacts while sheltering under a tent in an open field in Mbay, Nagekeo, East Nusa Tenggara, on August 17, 2026. — AFP Indonesia will also build an emergency field hospital in several areas, said Benjamin Paulus Octavianus, the country’s deputy health minister. Neurosurgeons and orthopaedic surgeons are needed to treat head trauma and broken bones, Benjamin said. ‘I don’t think about that anymore’ In Jakarta, about 1,500 kilometres west of the disaster zone, President Prabowo Subianto is expected on Monday to preside over celebrations marking Indonesia’s independence from Japanese rule in 1945. Residents fleeing from an Ende village in fear of tsunamis brought their clothes and mattresses to higher ground. Asked about how he felt about the independence day celebrations, one resident, Gervas, 42, said: “I don’t think about that anymore I just think about the safety of my wife and 4-year-old twins.”

Thousands await aid after deadly Indonesian quake kills 53
Help started arriving on Sunday for thousands of evacuees on Indonesia’s Flores island after a powerful earthquake killed 53 people, injured dozens and damaged hundreds of houses and buildings. Some 5,000 people fled their homes as the 7.7-magnitude quake hit the island early Saturday, followed by at least 341 aftershocks in the hours that followed, a spokesman for the BNPB national disaster agency, Berton Suar Pelita Panjaitan, said. People in some areas were left without electricity and telecommunications and at least one emergency access road remained inaccessible. “We need food, drink, medicines, and diapers for the children,” Umri, a resident of Nangahale village on the north coast of Flores, told AFP on Sunday morning. People gather outside a damaged bank building following a 7.7-magnitude earthquake in Ruteng, Manggarai, East Nusa Tenggara on August 16, 2026. — AFP The 55-year-old, who like many Indonesians uses one name, has been hiding out on a hilltop for 24 hours with others afraid to return home. Nurhidayati, also 55, spent the night on a mat on the same hill. “I’m still terrified; my heart is pounding hard remembering yesterday’s tremor… We just ran up here yesterday. I’m very scared now, still traumatised by the quake in 1992. I don’t dare to go home,” she said. Flores was struck by a 7.7-magnitude earthquake in 1992 that triggered a tsunami and killed about 2,500 people. “I hope the government will soon distribute logistics to help us,” said Nurhidayati. BNPB head Suharyanto said on Sunday at least five helicopters, several planes, a naval vessel and search and rescue ships were were on their way to help. Emergency response Berton said at least 101 Flores residents were reported injured in the quake. Survivors were in urgent need of assistance in the form of emergency tents, food, medicines, blankets, camp beds, mats, clean water and electricity generators, he added. The death toll rose by one from Saturday night to Sunday morning. Local search and rescue official Fathur Rahman told AFP on Sunday there were no reports of people buried or missing. The epicentre of the shallow quake was located just off the north coast of the island, geological authorities said. The affected areas have few, if any, high-rise buildings. Berton said at least 914 houses were severely damaged and hundreds of others to a lesser degree. Dozens of public facilities were also stricken, including 93 educational and 36 health facilities, and 38 government offices. The International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies said Saturday preparations were under way to bring aid to thousands in temporary shelters. The government sent 50,000 aid packages weighing a total of 275 tonnes to the area and European Union chief Ursula von der Leyen offered help from the bloc’s Copernicus Earth observation satellites. “Europe stands ready to deploy Copernicus, our eyes in the sky, to support search and rescue efforts. Indonesia, we stand with you,” she wrote on X. ‘Ring of Fire’ In Ruteng, a town about 200 kilometres from the worst-hit part of the island, AFP saw heavy machinery clearing rubble from the street Sunday. Yohana Raisita Damalia Mari, a spokeswoman for the local hospital, said the building had been badly damaged, and patients were evacuated to tents erected outside. A woman underwent an emergency C-section in an intact storage room converted into a temporary operating theatre. “Thank God, the surgery went smoothly and both the patient and her baby are safe,” said Yohana. Herybertus Geradus Laju Nabit, mayor of the Manggarai regency, told AFP it was impossible to predict when the aftershocks would end. “Therefore, our first appeal is: be vigilant. Stay alert,” he said. After Saturday’s quake, Flores residents ran for the hills as the sea retreated, a possible sign of an approaching tsunami. A tsunami warning was later lifted, but authorities urged people not to return to damaged buildings for fear that aftershocks may bring them down. Waves of up to 1.6 metres were reported in some coastal regions, according to Indonesia’s BMKG geological agency. Indonesia experiences frequent earthquakes due to its location in the Pacific “Ring of Fire”, an arc of intense seismic activity stretching from Japan through Southeast Asia and across the Pacific basin. A devastating 9.1-magnitude tremor in 2004 struck off the coast of Sumatra and triggered a tsunami that killed 220,000 throughout the region, about 170,000 of them in Indonesia. It was one of the deadliest natural disasters in recorded history.

Prabowo'dan Yolsuzlukta 'Parayı İade Et, Ceza Yok' Önerisi
Endonezya Devlet Başkanı Prabowo Subianto, 14 Ağustos'taki Ulusa Sesleniş konuşmasında, devlet kasasından milyarlarca rupiah çalan yolsuzluk yapmış yetkililerin parayı iade etmeleri halinde mahkumiyet ve hapis cezası olmadan serbest kalabileceklerini öngören bir öneri sundu. Teklif, iade edilen paranın cezai sürecin yerine geçmesini içeriyor. Eleştirmenler, bu yaklaşımı 'fiyat etiketli af' olarak nitelendiriyor; çünkü zimmete geçirilen paranın iadesi, yargı kararı ve cezai yaptırım olmadan suçun kapanması anlamına geliyor. Önerinin Endonezya'daki yolsuzlukla mücadele çabalarını zayıflatabileceği, hukuk önünde eşitliği tartışmaya açabileceği değerlendiriliyor.
