El Monte Ruang hace erupción en Indonesia, elevando alertas
April 30, 2024 - El volcán Monte Ruang de Indonesia ha hecho erupción por segunda vezen dos semanas, llevando a la evacuación de más de 12.000 personasy elevando el estatus de alerta a su nivel más alto.
Indonesia’s disaster mitigation agency (BNPB) said that all 843 residents living in Ruang island, where the volcano is located, have been moved to Manado, the capital of North Sulawesi province. Residents of Tagulandang island are being relocated to Siau island to the north.

That eruption also caused damage to some homes. At the time, the volcanology also issued a warning about the potential for a tsunami, Reuters said.
