this is a few hours drive from the capital, jakarta.o clear the roads today, a lot of debris and fallen trees on this one road which runs along the coast. also, the issue with the rescue work now is the fact that authorities are warning that there may be another tsunami. the weird or strange nature of this tsunami, the fact that it wasn't triggered by an earthquake but appears to have been triggered by underground volcanic activity of the volcano anak krakatau, that sits off the coast where i am, that volcano is still active. so, authorities are saying that they cannot rule out another tsunami happening. so, the situation here is quite tense. rescue workers coming in, but also wanting to be careful themselves. would you say that people there had been prepared for this, given there has been some volcanic activity? were they prepared, did they get any early warning that this was coming? no. people say there was no warning whatsoever. there has been volcanic activity at that volcano in the middle of the sea, that rises on the place of the

our indonesia editor rebecca henschke‘s on the line from the capital jakarta.an you help identify the areas worst affected just yet? it is from the west java beaches of the sunda strait, in the area where that performance was taking place and pandeglang, and on the other side, this is a muncher and islands, it is believed to have been hit —— the sumatran island. the communication lines are not great. the authorities do not have a clear picture. on the west java coast we are getting a clearer picture. those images you just played of the moment the tsunami hits, and this morning, in daylight, you can see the rows of houses that are longer sure, often houses that are longer sure, often houses made of bamboo, would, quickly build houses have completely collapsed in that area —— wood. it isa collapsed in that area —— wood. it is a popular holiday destination for local people. this is the time for holidays. people were in the area. water was rushing in to hotels and restau ra nts water was rushing in to hotels and restaurants as well last night. water was rushing in

jakarta . putative beaches maybe we could tell you the china chary to beach are just like three to four hour drive away from jakarta website and there there are popular tourist destination. there visited by a lot of people every year and especially especially now with the peak at peak season got it because christmas season is rolling around so yeah so they're popular beach for spots. now today the day after we were seeing some of the scenes of the aftermath there can you describe to me just how badly was this region hit. her. that maybe if you go to her that you're already. right if you know me but to which extent their damage. there was not clear cut maybe career you know or you can ship their cattle there better to target really hard to explain how to what extent of damage you go. how might the search and rescue operation now underway how quickly were these teams able to reach the site and what's the situation going forward. they should be or it could be right there pretty quickly or the fact

nearly fifty years let's go live now to step vasoline who has been following this story for us from jakarta so step what more are we hearing. yes we're talking about a very remote part here of indonesian especially a very remote part of where this incident has happened it's the high lands there's no road access there's no phone signal there and a group of soldiers and police have now climbed up the mountains have reached the first army post here which was actually also attacked late last night by this armed gunmen who are apparently according to police and military part of an independent group called themselves the free popcorn movement there they found four people wounded but alive they had shot wounds two of them were construction workers on the road this transpired highway that's currently being built by the government to basically bring some some money some economy into this very poor part of indonesia but this independence movement says this is also a way for indonesia to take control of what they called an occupied land so tomorrow it's already night there in part what's more this gro

the good news if there is good news in the situation is how close this tsunami has hit to jakarta indonesia its capital where all the emergency services the basic weather is very regular personnel who can sweep in and try and clear up and unlike the way the where i was a few months ago in parlor where that quake and tsunami hit that was a relatively remote spot for indonesia a long way from the capital and a lot of the problems there was due to the fact that it will fall on time for emergency people and emergency supplies to reach them very very different here we came to where i am now from the center of jakarta so i came from the airport took about an hour and a half long a very easy freeway and we saw lots of i'm going to is going in the other direction presumably taking victims of the tsunami to the capital to hospitals that there are also lots of other emergency vehicles going the same way as we were and there is no traffic it's all again completely different to the situation in palos what we're told is the main roads right through the disaster zone where the tsunamis hit is right on th
