A 10-MONTH-OLD baby has miraculously survived the devastating 6.9 magnitude earthquake that ripped through the Indonesian island of Lombok on Sunday.

The baby girl, Refi, was among those pulled alive from the rubble and piles of broken concrete.

She has since been given emergency aid after rescue workers restarted their attempts to find survivors within the flattened buildings and debris on the Gili Islands.

In another miraculous story, the Indonesian Red Cross said on Twitter it had helped a woman give birth at a makeshift health care station after the quake.

One of the names she gave the baby boy was “Gempa”, which means earthquake. His full name is Muhammad Gempa Rizki.

Apart from Sunday’s 6.9 magnitude earthquake, the island was further rattled by a magnitude 5.2 quake on Monday evening.

One witness said the latest quake woke up tourists who ran out of their hotel, but there was no apparent damage.

But the National Disaster Mitigation Agency (BNPB) expected the death toll to rise once the rubble of more than 13,000 houses is cleared away, following both quakes in one week.

So far more than 100 people have been confirmed dead, with thousands of buildings destroyed and more than 84,000 people displaced, according to disaster agency spokesman Sutopo Purwo Nugroho.

At least 4600 foreign and Indonesian tourists, including a large number of Australians, have been evacuated from three smaller islands off Lombok’s coast, Dr Nugroho said.

Danish tourist Soren Pederson said Lombok has descended into chaos with desperation sparking robberies.

“It’s chaos to say the least,” he told nine.com.au. “The whole island is abandoned. All the shops are being robbed by people and tourists and locals are taking food.”

It comes as shocking footage emerged from British traveller James Kelsall showing tourists scrambling on-board a boat at Gili Trawangan, a popular island near Lombok.

“Evacuation on Gili Trawangan — only seen locals being evacuated so far, very few tourists … (There are) dramatic scenes here,” Mr Kelsall said.

Home Affairs Minister Peter Dutton and a team of Australian delegates escaped from the 12th floor of a Lombok hotel, after the quake brought down parts of the building.

Other Australians have told of running for their lives, including resort manager Evan Burns who fled 3km with his wife and small son up a nearby mountain, fearing a tsunami.

“The force was so severe that it threw us out of bed, and the walls immediately started cracking,” he told AAP on Monday.

Desperate attempts are still being made to search for any survivors since the Sunday earthquake.

According to AAP, rescue teams had done everything it could to recover the body of a man killed instantly after his home was brought down by the 6.9 magnitude earthquake.

They used hacksaws to cut a square into concrete wall. They used crowbars and dogs and a power drill, AAP reported.

But the body of 60-year-old Abdul Malik would have to stay under the rubble for a third day.

“It’s taking far too long,” said the victim’s 50-year-old brother-in-law, who watched more than a dozen helmeted emergency workers in orange jumpsuits drill into a thick layer of concrete.

The tragic scene underscored the challenges facing Indonesia’s government as it struggles to deal with its latest natural disaster.

Dr Nugroho said emergency units in hospitals were overflowing and some patients were being treated in car parks.

The main hospital in the town of Tanjung in the north was severely damaged, with staff having to set up about 30 beds in the shade of trees and in a tent on a field to tend to the injured, AAP reported.

Despite it being a popular tourist destination, no foreigners were recorded among the dead, Dr Nugroho told a news conference.

BNPB said 18 extra flights had been added for leaving tourists.
