170,000 stranded at Indonesian airports after Anak Krakatau eruption

The eruption of the "Anak Krakatoa" volcano in Indonesia on Friday evening caused the closure of eight airports, including two serving Jakarta, resulting in approximately 170,000 people affected by canceled flights. Volcanic ash reached heights of up to 15,000 meters, with warnings of possible future eruptions. The region was impacted in terms of air travel safety and public health, leading to measures such as remote learning and mask-wearing. The volcano, which began its activity a century ago and caused the 1883 tsunami, is considered one of the most dangerous volcanoes in the Ring of Fire due to its continuous activity.
