But what more can you tell us first of all about the number of people who have died have died and indeed the number of people who are thought to have been injured.

From the last statement from the local government of Ranger District in West Java Province, he told the media that 46 people have died and hundreds of others are injured.

Um, and being taken to the, some of them being taken to the hospital and most of them are suffering from serious injuries.

They keep cleats for doctors and medical help for the local hospitals.

And he also said to the media that they're, they're trying to evacuate people who are isolated after the earthquake because the earthquake triggered a landslide in the local area in T and your district in West Java province.

Um, I can tell you when the earthquake happened.

I'm in Jakarta.

It's 100 km away from the epicenter of the earthquake, I'm in Jakarta, the capital city of Indonesia, where I'm based with BBC and when it happened, I was working from home on the 31st floor and as you know, the taller, your location is the stronger the tremor.

Um, and Indonesia is prone to earthquake.

There are dozens Of earthquake every year in Indonesia.

But uh, the tremor of this earthquake is the most intense I've experienced in a long time.

The earthquake is 5.6.

Richter scale and magnitude.

Um and it also forced people out of tall buildings of government and business build In the area here in Jakarta, including people who are working in BBC Indonesia's office.

The tremor lasted for more than a minute but people stayed out for longer in case of another wave of earthquake.

And I said the location or the epicenter of the earthquake is more than 100 km from the capital in Tianjin district in west Java province.

However, it send an intense tremor because the epicenter or the location of the earthquake is centered on land.

So on land earthquakes, it doesn't send tsunamis but it creates or rattled the area stronger than earthquake that are centered in the sea.

Yes, you paint a very vivid picture of the strength of the earthquake returning to the epicenter.

As you said, I'm reading reports that one local government official has told local television there that around 700 people were being treated for injuries.

The vast majority of them serious.

That would suggest wouldn't it?

That the numbers of dead and injured is likely to rise, wouldn't it Correent?

The number of deaths is quickly risen in the past few hours after the earthquake happened, we heard from the local government that the death toll was two and then it risen to 14 reason to 20 now 46.

And as you said, the local government told the media that around 700 people Are now at the hospital with serious injuries.

He's also said that the injured people are more than 700 because people with uh not so serious injuries or or light injuries are not taken to the hospital.

That's why he pleads for more medical help doctors to help in the local hospital.

And there was one report that I'd read as well and I don't know whether you have any further information that in one hospital alone in the area nearly 20 people died and at least 300 are being treated there.

Do you have any further insight into that?

That's what we heard from the local government.

However, I would need to go to the scene and see myself for sure.

Can you tell us a little bit more about this area?

Because you you mentioned that it's it's inland and that there are many villages around and I just wonder what sort of access there is to them and and how easy it will be to ascertain the kind of damage that might have been done there.

Um The access to the area is mainly um from land.

Um We cannot access the area uh by air.

So access by land is the only option that we can um take to go to the area and um the earthquake also triggered landslides.

So there are isolated areas in the epicenter of the earthquake that is still being taken care of by the government who are trying to evacuate more people from isolated area.

And um, there are video circulating in social media of destruction on people's houses and shops and uh, the area is not an urban area.

Um, there are villages, um, and uh, the destruction, it looks pretty uh, pretty bad from the video circulating right now.

Value from the BBC's Indonesian Service, We're very grateful for your time.

I know this is a developing story.

I'm just reading that the country's Meteorological Agency is warning residents near the earthquake to watch out for more tremors.

There could be potential aftershocks, he has warned for now.

The value many thanks for your time.
