Overview
- Indonesia’s disaster agency revised its estimate late Tuesday, saying attendance figures indicate about 91 people could be under the rubble, up from 38 previously reported missing.
- Authorities have confirmed three deaths, with a local hospital reporting two of those after emergency treatment, and eight injured patients are in stable condition.
- More than 300 personnel, including soldiers and police, are operating carefully through stacked concrete that remains unstable and restricts entry to one channel for delivering aid.
- Rescue leaders marked 15 intervention points—eight showing no response and seven showing reactions—while considering heavy equipment that could speed removal but risk harming survivors.
- Witnesses and police say the building gave way during an unpermitted expansion as concrete was poured for an added floor, and investigators are examining structural failure and compliance.
