Tsunami alert as Mount Ruang volcano erupts in Indonesia, forcing thousands to evacuate. Find out more about the dramatic volcanic activity!
Mount Ruang, a remote island volcano in Indonesia, has recently erupted multiple times, prompting authorities to issue a tsunami alert and evacuate hundreds of villagers. The eruption of Mount Ruang has created billowing clouds of smoke and ash, obscuring the sun and spewing hot lava and smoke into the air. With fears of a potential collapse that could trigger a tsunami, more than 11,000 people have been evacuated from the area.
The alert level for Mount Ruang was raised to the highest level of four after the eruption, heightening concerns about the volcano's activity. Prior to the eruption, hundreds of earthquakes were detected in the North Sulawesi province, indicating the imminent volcanic activity. The eruption on April 17, 2024, sent volcanic ash as high as 3000 meters into the air.
The situation remains critical as Indonesian authorities closely monitor the volcano and assess the ongoing risk of further eruptions. The volcanic activity serves as a reminder of the unpredictable nature of natural disasters and the importance of preparedness in vulnerable regions.
