Torrential rains have triggered flash floods and a landslide on the Indonesian island of Sumatra, killing 19 with a further seven people still missing.

Mud, rocks and uprooted trees rolled down a mountain and reached a river that burst its banks, tearing through mountainside villages in the West Sumatran province.
