EARTHQUAKE AND TSUNAMI IN INDONESIA

On September 28, a 7.5 magnitude earthquake struck the Sulawesi island in Indonesia. The severity of the quake triggered a deadly tsunami, which in places was reported to have resulted in a “wall of water” more than six metres high. More than 2,045 deaths have already been reported, and another 10,679 people are injured, but these figures are expected to rise. It is estimated that the lives of over a million have been affected.
