JAKARTA, Indonesia—A landslide triggered by torrential rains crashed onto an unauthorized gold mining operation on Indonesia’s Sulawesi island, killing at least 11 people, officials said Monday. Dozens others were reported missing.
About 79 villagers were digging for grains of gold on Sunday in the remote Bone Bolango district in Gorontalo Province when tons of mud plunged down the surrounding hills and buried their makeshift camps, said Heriyanto, head of the Search and Rescue Office.
