Mount Ruang volcano eruption in Indonesia leads to flight cancellations and tsunami fears. Find out more about the chaos caused by the eruption!
Mount Ruang volcano in Indonesia has been causing panic and chaos due to its recent eruption. The alert level for the volcano, standing at 725 metres above sea level, was raised to the highest level, indicating the severity of the situation. This eruption has sparked fears of a potential tsunami, with officials worried that the volcano might collapse into the sea, similar to an event in 1871.
The eruption has led to Malaysia Airlines cancelling flights between Kuala Lumpur, Sabah, and Sarawak, disrupting travel plans for many passengers. The volcanic activity has forced the evacuation of thousands of people in northern Indonesia, with authorities extending exclusion zones to ensure the safety of residents.
As Mount Ruang continues to spew ash and smoke into the sky, the Japan Meteorological Agency is investigating the possibility of a tsunami being generated by the eruption. The eruptions have been ongoing since Tuesday, intensifying the concerns of a potential disaster.
In a flash update, the Pusat Vulkanologi dan Mitigasi Bencana Geologi (PVMBG) reported significant volcanic activity at Mount Ruang, urging people to stay informed and prepared for any further developments.
