Christmas Day Update: The death toll following a tsunami that hit Indonesia has risen to more than 400, as a five-year-old boy was pulled from the rubble after being buried alive for 12 hours.
Official estimates for the number of people killed in the natural disaster has reached 429, with thousands of people left homeless.
