Only yesterday it had ejected fireballs killing 9 people
Indonesia is worried about the new eruption of the Lewotobi Laki-Laki volcano, located in the eastern area of the archipelago, the day after it launched fireballs on nearby villages, killing at least nine people. The 1,703 meter high volcano located on the tourist island of Flores, had erupted fiery rocks on the towns last night, destroying wooden houses.
Local authorities have established a security perimeter with a seven kilometer radius around the crater and have asked residents and tourists not to approach it. According to authorities, more than 10,000 people were affected by these eruptions.
