Flash floods and landslides in central Indonesia have killed at least 35 people and destroyed dozens of homes. Searchers are scouring devastated villages for survivors. On the main island of Java, 25 people were missing and 14 were injured following torrential rain and widespread flooding.

Areas prone to landslides across densely-populated Central Java province have been worst hit, with drivers swept off roads and dozens of homes demolished by fast-moving walls of mud, rock and water. Authorities said late Sunday that much of the flooding had subsided but warned people to stay cautious as heavy rain could continue into the next day.
