Volunteers have begun burying victims of Indonesia’s deadly earthquake and tsunami in a mass grave.
Friday’s disaster devastated swathes of the eastern Sulawesi island and has left at least 844 people dead.
Some remote areas have yet to be contacted, and there are fears that the death toll could rise further.
A lack of heavy lifting equipment is hampering rescuers’ attempts to reach people who remain alive in the ruins of collapsed buildings.
Dozens of people are feared to be underneath the rubble of one hotel alone, the Roa-Roa in the devastated coastal resort of Palu.
