Indonesia earthquake: latest

You may have seen in the papers and on the news over the weekend that an earthquake has struck central Java, Indonesia, near the town of Yogyakarta (see map). Oxfam's emergency teams are now supporting an estimated 20,000 people left homeless by the earthquake, providing them with clean water and essential supplies.

In total, an estimated 150,000-200,000 people have been left homeless following the disaster. Oxfam teams have installed water tanks at three hospitals and distributed tarpaulins for shelter and hygiene kits to prevent the outbreak of disease.
