Indonesia’s Mount Ibu erupted again on Sunday and spewed thick, gray ash 7,000 meters into the air, officials said.
The volcano, which is located on an island in the eastern North Maluku province, erupted for more than six minutes, according to Muhammad Wafid, chief of Indonesia’s Geology Agency.
A column of ash could be seen rising high into the sky. It spewed out material including volcanic ash and sand.
Local authorities advised residents not to carry out outdoor activities and remain sheltered indoors as long as the rain of ash mixed with sand continues.
