Landslide Kills 16 in Indonesia's Central Java, Official Says

The landslide was triggered by heavy rains in the area, Bergas told news channel Kompas TV, Reuters reported.

The search for those missing has been hampered by rain, said Bergas Caturasi, said an official at the country's regional disaster mitigation agency.

"The search continues on, because we don't have a lot of time. We're in a race with the weather," he said.
