Two new land formations have emerged in the waters surrounding Indonesia’s Anak Krakatau volcano following a significant eruption that occurred last month. Satellite imagery from the Sentinel program confirmed the presence of these small island-like structures near the volcanic site.

The eruption, which lasted for 25 consecutive hours in September, caused widespread disruption in the region. The event resulted in heavy volcanic ash fall over nearby cities and forced the closure of multiple airports, grounding flights for several days.
