Saloni Subha ( Intern Journalist ) Indonesia’s Mount Sinabung erupted again on Thursday. It erupted with a series of blasts that sent plumes of ash two kilometers into the Sky, activating a flight warning and fears of lava flows.
The volcano erupted for at least the eighth time. The rumbling volcano on Sumatra island has erupted in less than a week, however, no injuries or major damage has occurred due to this incident.
A warning has been issued by the authorities for planes flying near the volcano which last saw a deadly eruption in 2016. “There is potential for more eruption and airlines are asked to be on alert”, said national disaster mitigation agency spokesman Raditya Jati.
“Locals are advised to wear a face mask if they leave their homes to guard against the health effects of volcanic ash on health”, he further informed. On Monday Sinabung belched a tower of smoke and ash some five kilometers high, coating local communities in a thick layer of debris, after an eruption at the weekend.
