Mt Kelud eruption sparks evacuations and airport closures in Indonesia

Mt Kelud spews ash and sand over six-mile radius, grounding flights and affecting 200,000 people
A volcano erupted late on Thursday night on the heavily populated Indonesian island of Java, sending a huge plume of ash and sand 10 miles into the air and forcing the closure of three airports.

Mt Kelud is 85 miles (140km) south of Indonesia’s second biggest city, Surabaya, a major industrial centre. The cloud from the eruption was seen far to the west and forced the shutdown of airports at Surabaya and the cities of Yogyakarta and Solo. Airlines in neighbouring countries including Australia said they were cancelling flights to the affected areas and destinations further afield such as Bali, Christmas Island and the Cocos due to the dangers to aviation from the volcanic ash cloud.

“Areas to the west of Mt Kelud, including central Java, Yogyakarta, Cilacap, Magelang, Temanggung and Boyolali are still experiencing showers of ash because last night the biggest eruption ... threw sand and ash 17km into the air to the west,” National Disaster Mitigation Agency spokesman Sutopo Nugroho said by telephone.

The agency later said the cloud was dissipating and the volcano was no longer erupting.

@fay_hye, are you in Malang? I was so shocked to see the news that the eruption was so huge. The ashes even reached my hometown that is very far away from Kelud Mountain.
Please don't give up of hope, I wish you and your family are okay.

I don;t know, so many disasters happen in Indonesia recently. Floods, Sinabung Mountain eruption and now Kelud.

Prayers for safety for people in Indonesia.

May God have a Mercy and keep everyone safe.
Be strong and keep faith.
My pray and thought for everyone in Kelud.
Thanks Maris for the information.
Take care everyone...

@Fay_hye, we will be praying for kelud, you and family to be safe and, away from harms way. Let me know if there is anyway we could be of help.

I read that the mountain erupted violently about 90 minutes, and has spewed millions of cubic meters of debris into the atmosphere according to the disaster agency.
