Rescuers recovered more bodies as waters began to recede after flash floods and landslides caused by torrential rains on Indonesia`s Sumatra island, which have killed at least 26 people and left 11 missing, officials said on Monday.
Monsoon rains and rising rivers have submerged nine districts and cities in West Sumatra province since Thursday. Late Friday, a major mudslide caused a river to breach its banks and tear through mountainside villages in Pesisir Selatan district.
