384 killed in Indonesia quake-tsunami

The national disaster agency put the official death toll -- based on reports from medical facilities in the tsunami-struck city of Palu -- at 384, but warned the toll was likely to rise. In the city -- home to around 350,000 people -- partially covered bodies lay on the ground near the shore, the morning after tsunami waves 1.5 metres (five feet) high slammed into the city.
