GermanyA volcanic eruption at Anak Krakatau has temporarily closed six airports in Indonesia, including Jakarta's Soekarno-Hatta International Airport, leading to the cancellation of over 100 flights. Passengers were stranded, with airlines like Singapore Airlines announcing flight cancellations. The volcano, located between Java and Sumatra, erupted on Friday evening, producing an ash cloud reaching up to 15,000 meters. Indonesia's disaster agency announced plans to use cloud seeding to induce rain, which could wash away the volcanic ash affecting daily life. Authorities advised people to wear masks and protective gear during ashfall and to avoid outdoor activities. Ferry traffic continued normally but ships were instructed to stay at least three kilometers away from the volcano's crater. Fishing operations were halted. Anak Krakatau, meaning 'Child of Krakatoa,' emerged a century ago in the area once occupied by the infamous Krakatoa volcano, which erupted catastrophically in 1883, killing over 36,000 people in tsunamis. A previous eruption in 2018 caused another tsunami, resulting in more than 400 deaths.
