Storyline


The death toll of flash floods in Indonesia's eastern province of Papua reached 89 while the search and rescue operation for 74 missing continues, the country's disaster management agency said on Tuesday.

The natural disaster striking Jayapura district during the weekend has left 159 people injured, 84 seriously.

The disaster forced 6,831 people to flee home and took shelters at five evacuation centers after the floods and landslides destroyed 350 houses, three bridges, eight school buildings, three religious buildings and others infrastructures facilities.

The flood waters have not receded in some areas and some citizens have to wade in water to their work places.

"It is already three days we have been affected by the flood. I haven't slept well for three days and nights. I have sent my wife to the disaster relief center. My workplace is in the flooded area below and so I have to wade in flood water to my workplace," said Nover, local resident.

Flash floods are frequent in the remote Papua province, but the Saturday one was the worst.

One of the causes for the serious losses is that many people illegally built their houses by the river.
