At least 26 people have been killed and 13 injured after a bus plunged down a steep ravine and landed in a river in Indonesia. About 50 passengers were on board the bus in South Sumatra province when it plunged some 150m (500ft) on Monday night. The bus had left Bengkulu city and was heading for Palembang, a journey of several hours. Last year, 27 people died after a tourist bus ran off a road and overturned in West Java province. Two months later, two accidents in West Java killed at least 15 people.
