JAKARTA, Indonesia — A landslide engulfed children playing near a cliff in central Indonesia, killing one and injuring several, the country’s disaster agency said Friday. Agency spokesman Sutopo Purwo Nugroho posted a video online that showed frantic villagers pulling a limp child out of sodden earth on Thursday afternoon. He said that three children out of a group of six were injured and two were safe. They were playing by rail tracks in a hilly area when the landslide suddenly hit in Java’s Sukabumi district, about 100 kilometres (60 miles) south of the capital, Jakarta. A landslide in Sukabumi on the main island of Java earlier this month killed 32 people.
