Mount Lewotobi Laki-Laki erupted on Thursday, releasing dark ash up to 8km high, raising its alert level to the highest. This event led to the cancellation of at least seven international flights, primarily affecting Jetstar services to Australia. While the local airport in Maumere remains operational, there are warnings for potential mudflows due to heavy rainfall. The eruption's duration and the significant ash cloud have raised concerns for local residents, especially due to past incidents involving the volcano. An exclusion zone has been established around the volcano for safety.
At least seven international flights from Bali have been cancelled following a significant eruption of Mount Lewotobi Laki-Laki, which shot ash into the sky, raising alert levels.
The eruption lasted for over 11 minutes, prompting authorities to impose an exclusion zone around the volcano as ash was observed grey to black with thick intensity.
