on Sunday, the country&#8217;s Geological Agency said.<\/p>\n<p>But it remained active on Monday with moderate, intermittent eruptions, dark ash emissions and small, localised earthquakes, the agency said in a statement.<\/p>\n<p>Weather was obscuring visual observations of the eruption.<\/p>\n<p>AirNav Indonesia said tests showed volcanic ash present in the airspace around Jakarta and several other cities, prompting authorities to close eight airports until 6 pm on Monday, including the four commercial airports managed by state-owned operator InJourney Airports: Jakarta&#8217;s international airports of Soekarno-Hatta and Halim Perdanakusuma, Husein Sastranegara in West Java and Radin Inten in Lampung on the southern tip of Sumatra.<\/p>\n<div class=\"widget

flights and affected 268,539 passengers at the four airports managed by InJourney Airports, the company said.<\/p>\n<p>The eruption\u2019s impact extended beyond air travel. The government authorised schools in areas affected by volcanic ash, including in Jakarta, West Java, Banten and Lampung provinces, to temporarily move to online learning at home to reduce students\u2019 exposure to ash.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe probability of additional eruptions in the coming days remains high,\u201d said Lana Saria, head of the Geology Agency.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe main hazards include volcanic bombs, heavy ashfall and possible lava flows if sustained eruptive activity resumes,&#8221; she said.<\/p>\n<p>Anak Krakatau is a volcanic island in the Sunda Strait between Indonesia&#8217;s main Java and Sumatra islands. Its name means \u201cchild of Krakatau,\u201d and the volcano is the offspring of the infamous Krakatau, whose monumental 1883 eruption triggered a period of global cooling.<\/p>\n<div class=\"widget

shifted schools to remote learning on Monday though a volcanic eruption\u00a0that halted 2,300 flights and coated areas with ash was subsiding.The continuous, 25-hour eruption of Anak Krakatau that produced a fountain of lava and a boom heard 700 kilometres away ended on Sunday, the country&#8217;s Geological Agency said.But it remained active on Monday with moderate, intermittent eruptions, dark ash emissions and small, localised earthquakes, the agency said in a statement.Weather was obscuring visual observations of the eruption.AirNav Indonesia said tests showed volcanic ash present in the airspace around Jakarta and several other cities, prompting authorities to close eight airports until 6 pm on Monday, including the four commercial airports managed by state-owned operator InJourney Airports: Jakarta&#8217;s international airports of Soekarno-Hatta and Halim Perdanakusuma, Husein Sastranegara in West Java and Radin Inten in Lampung on the southern tip of Sumatra.The closure disrupted about 2,300 flights and affected 268,539 passengers at the four airports managed by InJourney Airports, the company said.The eruption\u2019s impact extended beyond air travel. The government authorised schools in areas affected by volcanic ash, including in Jakarta, West Java, Banten and Lampung provinces, to temporarily move to online learning at home to reduce students\u2019 exposure to ash.\u201cThe probability of additional eruptions in the coming days remains high,\u201d said Lana Saria, head of the Geology Agency.\u201cThe main hazards include volcanic bombs, heavy ashfall and possible lava flows if sustained eruptive activity resumes,&#8221; she said.Anak Krakatau is a volcanic island in the Sunda Strait between Indonesia&#8217;s main Java and Sumatra islands. Its name means \u201cchild of Krakatau,\u201d and the volcano is the offspring of the infamous Krakatau, whose monumental 1883 eruption triggered a period of global cooling.An eruption of Anak Krakatau in 2018 caused a tsunami\u00a0that killed at least 430 people in Sumatra and Java.Researchers believe volcanic activity triggered an underwater landslide and caused a large chunk of Anak Krakatau\u2019s southwest slope to collapse and displace a large volume of water.Indonesia\u00a0has more than 120 active volcanoes and frequently experiences eruptions due to its location along the Pacific \u201cRing of Fire,\u201d the ring of seismic faults around the Pacific Ocean where most global seismic activity occurs.<\/div>\n<p>[analyse_source url=&#8221;https:\/\/www.euronews.com\/2026\/09\/07\/volcano-in-indonesia-erupts-canceling-hundreds-of-flights-and-stranding-thousands&#8221;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[analyse_image type=&#8221;featured&#8221; src=&#8221;https:\/\/images.euronews.com\/articles\/stories\/09\/90\/34\/45\/1200x675_cmsv2_bc3db9d6-dd8b-5f24-814d-74ff97b99a8c-9903445.jpg&#8221;] Europe News Merz warns of &#8216;consequences&#8217; after election defeat in Saxony-Anhalt Europe News Von der Leyen counters Trump with \u20ac200M investment in Greenland Culture news UK museum to return remains of 39 people to India&#8217;s Naga community Moments Useful websites frequent flyers need to know about Europe News Merz warns of &#8216;consequences&#8217; [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[90],"tags":[226,36],"class_list":["post-2132189","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-international","tag-crawlmanager","tag-euronews-com"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2132189","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=2132189"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2132189\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=2132189"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=2132189"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=2132189"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
