Mount Lewotobi Erupts Again, Escalating Fears in Indonesia
Mount Lewotobi Laki-laki in Indonesia has erupted multiple times, further alarming residents after recent explosions claimed at least ten lives. The nation’s volcanology agency recorded seven eruptions on Thursday, with the largest sending ash 8,000 meters into the sky. Authorities have established a 7-kilometer exclusion zone around the volcano on Flores Island, as over 10,000 residents now seek refuge in temporary shelters. Officials have also issued warnings about possible flash floods and cold lava flows, raising concerns for those affected by the ongoing volcanic activities.
