    Yet another natural disaster has struck, this time leaving the island of Sulawesi in Indonesia wrecked.

    Over 800 people have been confirmed dead after a 7,4-magnitude earthquake hit the island, followed shortly by a tsunami that destroyed the residential areas and surrounds of the regional capital, Palu.

    The Guardian reports that an unknown number of people are trapped in the rubble of the buildings, and the death toll is expected to rise into the thousands.

    Footage was captured of the moment that the tsunami hit, showcasing the terrifying force of the giant wave:

    Shocking aerial footage shows apocalyptic scenes, as rescue teams work to free people from the rubble:

    Finally, drone footage captures the extent of the destruction in the aftermath:

    More than 150 aftershocks followed the earthquake and tsunami on Friday, destroying hundreds of hotels, homes, shopping malls and mosques.

    So far 821 of the deaths have been confirmed in the city of Palu, with 11 casualties in Donggala, home to 300 000 people.

    Hundreds of bodies have been found on the beach, and authorities fear that many people have been washed out to sea.
