Around 280 people were killed and more than 1,000 injured by high waves that struck coastal areas around Indonesia's Sunda Strait, between the islands of Sumatra and Java, last Saturday (Dec 22) night.
As of Monday morning, the death toll reached 281, up from 222 the night before, while 1,016 people were injured and 57 were missing, according to Indonesia's disaster agency.
The tsunami damaged or destroyed at least 611 homes, 69 hotels and villas, 60 small shops and 420 boats, said Dr Sutopo Purwo Nugroho, spokesman for National Disaster Mitigation Agency (BNPB).
