AI-generated summary
Mount Anak Krakatoa erupted on Saturday and Sunday, sending volcanic ash toward Jakarta's main international airport.
Mount Anak Krakatoa erupted on Saturday, producing a fountain of lava and booming sounds that could be heard up to 700km away, the geology agency said in a statement.
Two new eruptions were recorded on Sunday, the volcanology agency warned.
Ash from the volcano was detected in the airspace surrounding Soekarno-Hatta International Airport outside Jakarta, prompting authorities to initially suspend operations from 1.30am (local time) on Sunday to 5.30am.
After a paper test showing “positive results indicating the spread of volcanic ash in the Soekarno-Hatta International Airport area” the transport ministry extended the suspension to 9.30am.
The airport later confirmed on social media that the suspension had been extended a further four hours “due to increased eruptive activity”.
AI outlook — possibilities, not facts
Airport suspension may extend further if eruptive activity increases.
