Volcano Forces Jakarta Airport Shutdown | Nigeria News

Ash from a sudden eruption of Anak Krakatoa volcano forced Indonesia’s main airport, Soekarno-Hatta, to shut down—canceling 209 flights and stranding over 22,000 travelers. The explosive activity, marked by lava fountains and booming sounds, triggered multiple delays and ripple effects across national airports.

Though no tsunami is expected, geologists stress that predicting eruptions remains impossible, making vigilance essential.
