Updating Indonesia's Latest Quake Tragedy

More than 3,700 people have been killed, and many more remain unaccounted for in a region devastated by a 6.3 quake.

The 6.3-magnitude earthquake struck as many people were sleeping, injuring thousands in the nation’s worst disaster since the 2004 tsunami. It also triggered fears that a rumbling volcano nearby would erupt.

The quake badly damaged the world famous 9th century Prambanan temple complex, where scores of stone blocks and carvings lay scattered, an archaeologist said.

The disaster zone stretched across hundreds of square miles of mostly farming communities in Yogyakarta province. The worst devastation was in the rice-farming town of Bantul, where more than 2,400 people were killed and 80 percent of the homes were flattened.

UPDATE:
The death toll is now over 4,700.
