JAKARTA, Indonesia—Ten miners died in a coal mine explosion in Indonesia’s West Sumatra Province on Friday and four others were rescued, officials said.
“The last victim was found after a search in a 240-meter (800-foot) -long tunnel. Most of the victims suffered burns. All of the survivors experienced shortness of breath and were evacuated for further treatment,” said Octavianto, a spokesperson for the local search and rescue agency, who like many Indonesians uses only one name.
