Ninety dead in Indonesia floods as cyclone displaces thousands in Sri Lanka

BBC update

AT least 80 people have died and dozens more are still missing after devastating floods hit Indonesia this week.

South East Asia is facing some of the worst floods the region has seen in years, with millions impacted across Indonesia, Malaysia and Thailand.

But it's not just Southeast Asia that is struggling with extreme weather - in Sri Lanka, at least 56 people have died and 21 are still missing after heavy rains wreaked havoc on the island this week.

Sri Lanka is bracing for more severe weather on Friday as Cyclone Ditwah moves along its eastern coast.
