The Anak Krakatoa volcano erupted on Saturday, triggering a lava flow and explosions that were audible up to 700 kilometers away, according to the Indonesian volcanology agency. The eruption forced the suspension of flights at six airports in the country.
The Indonesian volcanology agency monitored the volcano's activity and issued warnings about the dangers associated with the eruption. Authorities reported that the explosions could be heard at long distances due to the intensity of the event.
The flight suspension affects six airports in Indonesia, a country located in the so-called Ring of Fire, a region with intense seismic and volcanic activity. Anak Krakatoa is one of the most active volcanoes in the region and has experienced frequent eruptions in recent years.
