Indonesia: Emergency services make dramatic landing at tsunami site
A plane carrying emergency workers were forced to land on a shortened runway at the tsunami-affected Mutiara SIS Al-Jufrie airport on Sulawesi island on Saturday.
The video filmed from the cockpit shows the trail of destruction left by the natural disaster.
The airport was forced to close on September 28 after large cracks formed in the runway. It reopened the following day with a reduced service. During the earthquake an air traffic controller died ensuring a Batik Air flight 6231 took-off safely. He waited until the plane was airborne before jumping from the tower.
A powerful 7.5 magnitude earthquake hit Sulawesi on Friday, triggering a tsunami with waves as high as 1.5 metres (5 ft).
According to the country's disaster mitigation agency, the death toll from the disaster is now at 832, with numbers expected to rise.
