Death toll from Indonesia’s volcano eruption climbs to 34
Search and rescue operations are still under way to find 16 people missing after the eruption
of Java’s Mount Semeru. The death toll from the eruption on Saturday of the highest volcano on
Indonesia’s Java island has risen to at least 34, local officials said, and rescue operations are still
under way.
Mount Semeru, in the Lumajang district of East Java province, spewed thick columns of ash
more than 12,000 metres (40,000 feet) into the sky, with searing gas and lava flowing down its
slopes after the sudden eruption. The disaster left entire streets filled with mud and ash,
swallowing homes and vehicles in several villages.
“So far, 34 people have died and 16 are still being searched [for],” Wayan Suyatna, head of
the local search and rescue agency, told state media on Tuesday, raising an earlier death toll of
14. He added that nearly 3,700 people have been evacuated from the affected area.
Rescuers have been battling dangerous conditions since the eruption, searching for
survivors and bodies in the volcanic debris, wrecked buildings and destroyed vehicles. Search
crews deployed dogs on Tuesday to aid the operation.
Mount Semeru has remained active since Saturday, with small eruptions keeping emergency
workers and residents on edge. On Tuesday, there were three small eruptions, each spewing ash
about a kilometre (3,300 feet) into the sky, authorities said. Officials have advised locals not to
travel within 5km (3.1 miles) of Semeru’s crater, as the nearby air is highly polluted and could
affect vulnerable groups.
Indonesia, an archipelago of more than 270 million people, is prone to earthquakes and
volcanic activity because it sits along the Pacific “Ring of Fire”, a horseshoe-shaped series of
fault lines.
