Indonesia’s Semeru volcano erupted on November 19, prompting the country’s volcanology agency to raise the alert level on Java Island’s highest peak to its maximum. The 3,600-metre volcano sent ash clouds soaring up to 54,000 feet above its summit, and authorities have urged residents to maintain a 2.5 km exclusion zone due to ongoing risks. Semeru is among nearly 130 active volcanoes in Indonesia, which sits along the seismically volatile Pacific Ring of Fire.
