Over Fifty Reported Dead in Indonesia School Collapse
Eight more bodies were recovered Sunday evening from the wreckage of the Al Khoziny Islamic boarding school in Sidoarjo Regency, according to Nanang Sigit, head of the East Java Search and Rescue Office.
“A total of 157 victims have been found, including 104 survivors and 53 casualties,” Sigit said.
Emergency crews, supported by heavy machinery and specialized electrical tools, have shifted their focus to the north side of the compound—an area not structurally connected to the main building.
The school structure collapsed on September 29, trapping hundreds beneath layers of concrete and debris. Rescue teams remain on-site as efforts intensify to locate any remaining victims.
