Mount Lewotobi Laki-Laki, located on the island of Flores, discharged an 11km high column of ash on Tuesday.
Dozens of flights to and from Indonesia’s resort island of Bali have been cancelled after a volcanic eruption in the country’s east spewed an enormous ash cloud into the sky.
Mount Lewotobi Laki-Laki in the country’s East Nusa Tenggara province erupted late on Tuesday, sending an 11km (6.84-mile) column of ash into the sky, according to Indonesia’s geological agency.
It raised the alert level to the highest of its four-tier system and said another eruption on Wednesday morning produced a smaller ash cloud.
No casualties have been reported. However, local authorities evacuated residents from several villages near the volcano as a precaution.
