Indonesia’s Mount Merapi Volcano Erupts Again

JAKARTA, Jan 6 (NNN-ANTARA) – The first volcanic eruption of 2024 painted the night sky with a fiery spectacle at Mount Merapi, one of Indonesia’s most active volcanoes. The dramatic event, captured in a long exposure photograph by Agung Supriyanto, took place in the early hours of Jan 4, 2024. The image, taken from Tunggul Arum Village in Sleman, Yogyakarta, depicts the ejection of volcanic material, illuminating the darkness with its raw power.

At 02:52 local time, Mount Merapi announced its presence, hurling a column of ash approximately three kilometres into the sky. The eruption was witnessed by the vigilant team of Mitigasi BPBD Sleman, an organisation dedicated to disaster mitigation. The volcano’s fury was monitored in real-time, providing invaluable data on its behaviour and patterns.– NNN-ANTARA
