Indonesia earthquake death toll reaches 310

The death toll from an earthquake which struck Indonesia's Java island has risen to 310 after rescuers found more bodies under landslides, an official said.

At least 24 people are still missing.

Bodies were recovered yesterday in two areas of the mountainous Cianjur districtin western Java, where landslides triggered by Monday's earthquake brought tonnes of mud, rocks and broken trees.

Rescuers have been searching through the rubble since the magnitude 5.6 quake, which injured more than 2,000 people.
