Anak Krakatoa volcano erupts in Indonesia

Sábado6 September 2026 at 14:20

The Anak Krakatoa volcano, located in Indonesia, erupted. Images captured the moment when lava and ash were expelled by the volcano, marking another significant eruptive activity of this volcanic formation.

The ash cloud resulting from the eruption spread across several areas of the country, affecting vast regions of Indonesia and creating dangerous conditions for civil aviation in the area.

As a consequence of the volcanic ash dispersion, hundreds of flights had to be cancelled, causing significant inconvenience to passengers and disruptions to the country's air transport.

Indonesia, situated in the so-called Ring of Fire of the Pacific, is frequently affected by volcanic activity, being among the countries with the highest number of active volcanoes in the world.
