According to Indonesia’s Climate and Geophysics Agency, the 5.6 magnitude quake struck Cianjur town in West Java at a shallow depth of 10km (6 miles).
Scores of people take to the hospital, with many treated outside.
Rescuers have worked through the night to save others trapped under collapsed buildings.
The area where the quake struck is densely populated and prone to landslides, with many poorly built houses reduced to rubble.
The exact number of people killed so far remains unclear. Indonesia’s National Disaster Mitigation Agency (BNPB) has said their official death toll was 62, adding that another figure given by the regional governor of West Java- 162 – remains unverified.
