A volcanic eruption occurred on Mount Semeru in East Java, Indonesia. This was reported by UNN with reference to Daily Mail.
Details
The volcanic eruption occurred at 6:11 AM local time. As a result, a huge column of white-gray volcanic ash rose into the sky and drifted south. The ash was ejected to a height of 54,000 feet, which is approximately 16,000 meters.
This prompted Australia to issue a warning about the danger to aircraft flights, particularly passenger planes, the report said.
