Ash and Smoke Emissions The volcano sent ash and smoke more than two kilometers into the sky. The second eruption pushed the ash column to 2.5 kilometers.
Historical Precedent Officials expressed concerns that part of the volcano could collapse into the sea and cause a tsunami, as happened during a previous eruption in 1871.
Increased Danger Radius After four more eruptions on Wednesday, Indonesia’s volcanology agency raised the alert level for the volcano to four, the highest on the scale, and widened the exclusion zone around the crater from four kilometers to six kilometers.
The eruption of Ruang Volcano has been a major event, prompting extensive evacuations and raising concerns about potential tsunamis. The situation continues to be monitored closely by authorities.
