BBC World Service - Newshour, Indonesia Earthquake: Death Toll RiseS

Number of deaths from the earthquake and tsunami in Indonesia has risen to more than 800

Interviews, news and analysis of the day’s global events.

The authorities in Indonesia say more than eight-hundred people are now known to have been killed by an earthquake and tsunami on the island of Sulawesi. Relief officials say many people are still trapped in the city of Palu. Lacking heavy lifting equipment, rescuers have been using their hands to try to reach people.

Also in the programme: Venezuelan refugees in Colombia; can the British Prime Minister, Theresa May, sell her plan for Brexit to her Conservative Party at their annual conference? And the survivor of anti-albinism prejudice and violence, who's scaling new heights.
