Thousands were evacuated from the area surrounding Indonesia's Mount Merapi as it erupted Sunday, with residents advised to remain at least 4.3 miles away from its crater's mouth.
Merapi is the most active out of more than 120 volcanoes across the country. Sunday's eruption is the latest since authorities raised its alert level to the second-highest in November 2020 after sensors picked up increasing activity. Residents living on the slopes were advised to stay 4.3 miles away from the crater’s mouth and be aware of possible threats from flowing lava.
