At least 20 killed, 165 wounded after tsunami hits Indonesia

-



A tsunami hit Pandeglang, Serang and South Lampung, Indonesia, early Sunday, killing 20 people and injuring 165, according to a tweet from Sutopo Purwo Nugroho, head of public relations at Indonesia's National Disaster Mitigation Agency.

Two people are missing and dozens of buildings were damaged, he said

The tsunami was likely caused by a combination of underwater landslides due to a volcanic eruption of Mount Krakatau and the full moon, Nugroho tweeted. The country's meteorological, climatological and geological agency is investigating the cause of the tsunami.



“Next wave entered the hotel area where I was staying and downed cars on the road behind it. Managed to evacuate with my family to higher ground trough forest paths and villages, where we are taken care of (by) the locals. Were unharmed, thankfully.”

The Sunda Strait between the islands of Java and Sumatra connects the Java Sea to the Indian Ocean.



Footage posted by the head of the disaster management agency showed the aftermath of flooded streets and an overturned car.
