Indonesia to Relocate Thousands After Deadly Volcano Eruptions

Mount Lewotobi Laki-Laki's eruptions have killed nine and forced the government to plan permanent relocations for residents in Flores.

Mount Lewotobi Laki-Laki erupted multiple times, resulting in nine fatalities and extensive damage to homes and infrastructure.
The Indonesian government has declared a state of emergency and plans to relocate residents within a seven-kilometer radius of the volcano.
Over 10,000 people have been affected, with about 4,400 seeking refuge in temporary shelters after the eruptions.
Authorities have raised the volcano's alert status to the highest level and are providing logistical support to displaced villagers.
Indonesia, located on the Pacific 'Ring of Fire,' frequently experiences volcanic activity due to its position on seismic fault lines.
