Tsunami death toll jumps to 659 in Indonesia

PANGANDARAN, Indonesia (AP) — The death toll from the Indonesian tsunami earlier this week rose to 659 after emergency workers reached a previously inaccessible area along Java island's southern coast, the government said Saturday. Drajat Santosa, an official at the government's National Disaster Management Coordinating Board, said nearly 100 bodies were found in a part of Ciamis district that had been cut off by a broken bridge. The toll climbed to 659 with 330 others missing, he said. Previously, the government said 547 had been killed. http://www.usatoday.com/news/world/2006-07-22-indonesia-tsunami_x.htm
