A volcano erupted in Indonesia early Sunday, sending ash drifting across the western parts of the country. The natural disaster prompted the cancellation of all flights at Jakarta’s Soekarno-Hatta International Airport and caused disruptions at other domestic airports.
Despite the significant disruption to air travel, authorities reported no casualties and issued no evacuation orders. The nearest settlement is located more than 10 miles away from the volcano, though officials have warned residents and visitors to maintain a distance of at least 2 miles from the active crater.
