Eruption du volcan MERAPI en Indonésie
L'éruption du volcan Merapi, sur l'ile de Java en Indonésie qui s'est produite le 26 octobre 2010, a tué 322 personnes, blessé sérieusement 427 personnes, et provoqué le déplacement de centaines de milliers de personnes. Des milliers ont perdu leurs moyens de subsistance et les cendres du volcan ont détruit l'agriculture qui leur permettait de se nourrir.
Averti par un appel à l'aide afin d'aider ces populations lancé par un photographe français vivant à proximité du volcan, l'ONG « POMPIERS DE L'URGENCE INTERNATIONALE » a décidé de se mobiliser pour mobiliser toutes les ressources possibles afin de venir en aide à ces populations en danger.
L'association PUI, agréée "sécurité civile" et reconnue par les Nations Unies, est déjà intervenue pour des tremblements de terre au Pakistan, en Turquie, Indonésie, Italie et récemment à Haïti.
Notre appel aux dons est destiné à l'acquisition sur place de nourriture, eau potable et matériels agricoles pour permettre à la population de reprendre une activité et subvenir à leurs besoins.
Pompiers de l'Urgence Internationale, composée de bénévoles, lance un appel à la solidarité et aux dons financiers.

Strong earthquake shakes central Indonesia
A strong earthquake has hit waters off central Indonesia, sending hundreds of residents fleeing their homes, but there are no reports of injuries or damage.Source: The Sydney Morning Herald
The US Geological Survey says the epicentre of Tuesday's 5.8-magnitude quake was 140 kilometres from Yogyakarta, a bustling city still traumatised by a 2006 tremor that killed 5700 people.
In recent weeks, the city has been showered by ash from the nearby Mount Merapi volcano, which has killed at least 386 people since bursting back to life on October 26.

Indonesia is prone to seismic upheaval due to its location on the Pacific "Ring of Fire", an arc of volcanos and fault lines encircling the Pacific Basin.

Mbah Marijan lived and died here

Like A Bridge Under Troubled Water
The danger now is coming from the hard rain that falls over Sleman. It creates floods of mud that distroy all the natural rivers, and a lot of bridges, trimming the banks, and threatening the buildings too close.
Those floods of cold lava are able to roll down the rivers big rocks weighing dozens of tones...
I went to the small river of Mbebeng, turned into a dangerous snake.
Workers collecting rocks from Merapi
Workers resting after collecting the cold lava, in the river
The banks are seriously distoyed by the flood
On the right, a big rock, weighing several tones. In the middle, a probable piece of a bridge.
Two hours after, the hard rain trigged a new big flood, that brought tones of mud, and more huge rocks.
This farm, in the background, will possibly disappear in the next flood.
banks collapsing, throwing trees in the floods
A crownd of people watching the show.
The road will need to be free from all the mud and rock, before any car can cross it again.
