The Lewotobi Laki-Laki volcano broke out on the Indonesian island of Flores. Since Thursday there have been several eruptions in which the Feuerberg axis and rocks spit in the air. Air traffic was also influenced in the morning.
First of all, the Australian Low -Cost Airline Jetstar announced that in the morning (local time) Ngurah Rai Airport in Denpasar, Balinese, did not apply for safety reasons. It is unclear whether air traffic can normally continue in the afternoon. Bali is just about 500 kilometers from the province of East -Nusa Tenggara, in which the volcano is located.
Electricity has failed
Local media said that part of the electricity in populated areas around the Lewotobi Laki Laki had failed. Many people fled from their homes during the strongest eruption.
Alarm level raised
The authorities asked residents and tourists to wear masks and to avoid the crater within a radius of eight kilometers. The Vulkanology Authority and Dangers announced that the alarm level for Feuerberg was placed at level 4 on a scale of 5.
