An Indonesian local official revealed Saturday that at least 10 people were killed and 10 others were missing following flash floods and a landslide on the Indonesian island of Sumatra.

46,000 people had to evacuate the temporary shelters as torrential rains set off floods and landslides that hit Pesisir Selatan regency in West Sumatra province.

"Ten people were found dead. Two victims were found in Langgai village, Sutera subdistrict, seven victims were found and identified in Koto XI Tarusan subdistrict, and one other victim was found in the Lengayang subdistrict," Pesisir Selatan disaster mitigation agency acting head Doni Yusrizal revealed in a statement.

Doni further revealed that bad weather had disrupted efforts to look for 10 missing people.

"The weather as of this morning is still rainy, and then there are some access (points) that were cut off so it is difficult to go through," Doni added then explained that they were utilizing boats to get to people cut off by the floods.

The statement added that at least 14 houses were buried in the landslide, more than 20,000 houses were flooded and eight bridges had fallen.

In Padang Pariaman regency, also in West Sumatra, heavy downpours between March 7 and 8 triggered river overflow and set off floods and a landslide, killing at least three people, according to a statement from the local disaster mitigation agency.
