Amid heightened activity at several volcanoes across Indonesia, authorities are warning about potential eruptions and to refer only to information from credible sources.
The Center for Volcanology and Geological Hazard Mitigation (CVGHM) maintained on Saturday the level of warning for Mount Ruang in North Sulawesi. Also known as a red alert, the center first imposed the highest level of the four-tier national alert system on the volcano after a series of eruptions on Wednesday.
Aside from Mt. Ruang, five other volcanoes remain at the third-highest warning level: Mt. Awu in North Sulawesi, Mt. Ile Lewotolok in East Nusa Tenggara, Mt. Marapi in West Sumatra, Mt. Merapi in Central Java and Mt. Semeru in East Java.
