Mount Ruang Erupts: 19-km Plume, Highest Alert, Evacuations, Airport Closed
Apr 30, 2024, 06:00 AM
Indonesia's Mount Ruang volcano has experienced multiple eruptions, prompting the highest alert status and significant emergency responses. The eruptions began on April 30, 2024, with one of the most notable events producing a volcanic plume reaching 19 kilometers into the sky and an eruption column of 2000 meters above the peak. The intense volcanic activity, characterized by explosive eruptions of ash and sulfur dioxide, incandescent lava, and volcanic lightning, has led to the evacuation of over 12,000 residents, the closure of a nearby international airport, and concerns about a potential tsunami. The eruptions have also released ash and debris affecting local communities. Authorities are closely monitoring the situation as the volcanic activity continues.
