Indonesian mine explosion kills 10

At least 10 workers were killed in Indonesia after an explosion in a coal mine caused a collapse.

The miners were at a coal mine in the West Sumatra province when the blast buried an estimated 14 people on Friday, reports AFP.  

The mine "reportedly collapsed due to an explosion caused by methane", local search and rescue agency spokesman Octavianto, who like many Indonesians uses only one name, said in a statement.

Ten bodies were recovered, while four people survived, he added.

The mine was reported to be a licensed operation.
