Watch: Buildings partially collapse in Indonesia after 7.7 earthquake

Around 5,000 people have been displaced by a powerful earthquake in Indonesia that has caused at least 53 fatalities.

Rescuers continue to search for survivors of the shallow magnitude 7.7 quake, which struck the island of Flores shortly before 05:00 local time on Saturday (22:00 GMT on Friday).

Preliminary reports indicate more than 900 homes and hundreds of other buildings have been severely damaged by the tremor and 341 subsequent aftershocks, the National Disaster Management Agency (BNPB) said.
