Arab Weather - Several international airlines cancelled their flights to and from the Indonesian tourist island of Bali today, Wednesday, due to the renewed eruption of the volcano, which released thick clouds of ash up to ten kilometers into the air, forcing thousands of people to evacuate their surrounding areas.

Death toll from first volcanic eruption

The first eruption of Mount Leutopi Laki-Laki, located in East Nusa Tenggara province, about 800 kilometers from Bali, has killed at least nine people. Since November 3, the volcano has been active, erupting several times, including a significant recurrence yesterday.

Volcano threatens tourism in Indonesia's top destinations

Bali is Indonesia’s most popular tourist destination, attracting millions of visitors each year. The volcanic eruption comes at a time when it threatens air traffic and disrupts the flow of tourists, posing a challenge to the country’s tourism sector.

  • Environmental impact and future challenges

The renewed eruption of Mount Leutopi is raising major environmental concerns, as it spews ash that could pollute the air and negatively impact crops and water in the region. Authorities warn that the volcano’s activity may continue, necessitating preparations to deal with any further future disturbances in surrounding areas.
