Mount Ruang, a towering volcano in Indonesia, has recently become the center of attention as it began to erupt. The eruption has caused a great deal of chaos, leading to the evacuation of thousands of people from their homes. On the island of Sulawesi, more than 2,100 individuals were forced to flee as the volcano spewed dangerous ash, falling rocks, and hot volcanic clouds. According to reports from the Associated Press, the active volcano also poses a risk for a potential tsunami, adding to the danger for those living nearby.
The eruption of Mount Ruang has caused widespread concern and disruption on the island. The Centre for Volcanology and Geological Hazard Mitigation in Indonesia has recorded at least three eruptions since Friday afternoon, with the highest reaching a staggering height of 1,200 meters. The towering ash column and unpredictable nature of the volcano have led to the temporary closure of an international airport in Manado, a city located less than 60 miles away from Mount Ruang. This closure was deemed necessary in order to protect the safety of travelers and prevent any potential dangers caused by the volcanic ash.
