According to Cilacap SAR Office Head Muhammad Abdullah at the accident site on Sunday, the latest victim was identified as Kasrinah, aged 47, found on Sunday at around 12 p.m. local time.
"We deployed 21 excavators, 17 air compressor sets, nine sniffer dogs, and over 600 personnel to expedite the victims' search and retrieval," Abdullah noted.
Kasrinah was found at the search area designated as "A-2" worksite, covering Cibuyut Hamlet, he said, adding that the missing victims count currently stands at 11.
He noted that five more persons are yet to be found at the Cibuyut Hamlet, while six persons remain missing at the "B-1" and "B-2" worksites covering Tarukahan Hamlet.
The landslide rattled Tarukahan and Cibuyut hamlets in Cibeunying Village, Cilacap District, on Thursday (November 13) at 7 p.m. local time. Two individuals were found dead, while 21 more were missing by the end of the first day of SAR operation.
One missing person was found dead on the second day of SAR operation on Friday (November 14), while eight were found dead by the third day on Saturday (November 15).
The disaster caused damage to 12 houses while threatening 16 others in areas spanning 6.5 hectares. Besides burying areas in two villages, the landslide also caused two-meter land subsidence and a 25-meter crack in affected areas.
The National Disaster Mitigation Agency (BNPB) said it has ensured a swift emergency response to the landslide in Cilacap District.
"The President conveyed his condolences. He instructed BNPB to deploy personnel to the site and assist in completing the landslide response in Majenang until the emergency response period is over," said Budi Irawan, BNPB's Deputy for Emergency Response, in a statement received on Saturday.
BNPB appealed to the residents to remain alert as light to moderate rainfall is still likely to occur until Sunday, especially in the Majenang basin area, which is prone to landslides.
