JAKARTA: Indonesian authorities on Monday (Apr 22) lowered the alert level of a remote volcano that erupted more than half a dozen times in the last week, while the nearest international airport reopened
WITH the eruption of Mount Ruang in Sulawesi kicking off on April 16 and the subsequent upending of the travel plans of many due to all the airport closures and cancelled flights, it is only natural that many have questioned the need for such measures.
Indonesian authorities were on alert Friday for more eruptions from a remote island volcano that forced thousands to evacuate this week, as nearby residents began clearing debris after molten rocks rained down on their villages.
The department has advised the public stay updated on further information released through its official website, the myCuaca application, and social media pages.
