As of today, 20 people have been confirmed dead, eight others injured, and fives are still missing. The number of confirmed deaths from Friday’s landslides at a quarry in Indonesia’s West Java province rose to 20 as of Sunday, Xinhua News reported, citing officials. Continued landslides have forced authorities to pause the search for five people still missing. Mamang Fatmono, acting head of the province’s search and rescue operations, confirmed that ongoing landslides have made it too dangerous to continue rescue efforts at the site. The incident occurred at the Gunung Kuda stone mine in Bobos Village of Cirebon Regency around 10 a.m. local time (0300GMT). Authorities believe that the stone quarry collapse was due to a mining error. Earlier reports indicated that at least 10 people were killed and six were injured after a natural stone quarry collapsed on several people.
