Bali flights cancelled as Indonesia’s volcano erupts, spewing ash 8km high

Indonesia’s Lewotobi Laki-Laki volcano erupted violently, sending ash clouds over 8 km high, prompting authorities to raise the alert level to its highest status. Flight disruptions followed, with cancellations by an Australian airline. Residents and tourists are advised to stay 7-8 km away, as heightened volcanic activity and ash pose risks to air travel, particularly to Bali.
