So far, the 7.5 magnitude earthquake and tsunami that rocked Indonesia Sept. 28 has killed more than 1,550 people. But that death toll is widely expected to climb as recovery efforts continue. The quake devastated the city of Palu, where most of the deaths are reported. Rescuers are now using Indonesian flags to mark sites where bodies are trapped under piles of rubble.
