Incredible drone pictures have shown the full extent of the devastating Indonesian earthquake which has destroyed buildings and killed more than 1,200 people.
Hundreds of people are trapped in mud and 1,700 homes have been swallowed up on the island of Sulawesi after the magnitude 7.5 earthquake struck on Friday, triggering a tsunami.
Huge mass graves are being dug in an desperate attempt to stop disease from spreading, with one grave measuring 10 by 100 metres.
Survivors have been forced to comb through body bags in an attempt to identify their missing family members.
Pictures captured by a drone show a huge ship stranded ashore after being thrown inland by the tsunami, a mosque totally destroyed and cars left lodged in buildings by powerful waves sparked by the massive tremor.

The death toll is expected to rise as connections to outlying areas are restored.
'I've been in direct contact with President (Joko) Widodo about this. Australia stands ready to assist as is needed,' Mr Morrison said.

Mr Morrison said there has been no request for help so far, but Australia is preparing contingencies in case help is needed.
Terrifying footage filmed from the metal roof of a house showed large buildings and electricity pylons ripped from their foundations due to 'liquefaction' of the ground.
Liquefaction is a phenomenon in which the strength of soil is reduced by an earthquake, causing it to flow like liquid.

The terrifying moment families run for their lives in Indonesia as tsunami and quakes turn the ground to LIQUID
The surface of tsunami-destroyed Palu City in Indonesia has turned to mush, with the death toll from Friday's natural disaster likely to climb even higher from 1,203.
Houses and buildings have moved, sunken or collapsed as a result of the 'liquefaction' of the ground and there are more people still suspected to be trapped.
This natural phenomenon occurs during an earthquake when tremors shake normally compact layers of sand and soil into a deadly 'soup' that can create an effect similar to a sink hole.
In a video shared to Twitter on Sunday, families stood watch as buildings around them crumbled and the earth slid beneath their feet.

The short clip was uploaded by Indonesian official Sutopo Purwo Nugroho, who wrote, 'houses moved and collapsed were caused by the liquefaction process and collapsed due to the 7.4 SR earthquake in Palu City.
'The ground surface moves and sinks so that all buildings are destroyed. The geological process is very terrible. It is estimated that victims are trapped in this area.'
Loud rumbling and crashing could be heard in the footage as a distressed family, including a baby, fled from nearby crumbling buildings.
The panicked group were forced to watched as a large shed-like structure fell to the ground before sliding across it towards them.
There were scenes of chaos as people scurried to reach safe ground - an impossible task given the dangerous sinking mud.
Fears have been mounting for the the fishing town of Donggala, which was closer to the epicentre of the quake, because rescuers have not been able to reach it.
The town of Mamuju was also severely affected but currently impossible to access due to damaged roads and disrupted telecommunications.
Some remote areas feared wiped out by the disaster have yet to be contacted, medicines are running out and rescuers, who have reported hearing screams from under building wreckage, are struggling with a shortage of heavy equipment.
In response, President Joko Widodo opened the door to the dozens of international aid agencies and NGOs who are lined up to provide life-saving assistance.
Britain will send a team of five aid workers to Sulawesi along with £2 million of support to help the thousands left homeless, the Department for International Development (DfID) confirmed.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
