Seven international flights from Indonesia\u2019s resort island Bali have been cancelled due to a volcanic eruption in the eastern region of the country, which released dark ash up to eight kilometers into the sky.\u00a0<\/p>\n

According to Indonesia\u2019s Center for Volcanology and Geological Disaster Mitigation<\/a>, shallow volcanic earthquakes started occurring on March 20, 2025, originating from Mount Lewotobi Laki-Laki, a volcano located in the southeastern part of Flores Island, East Nusa Tenggara Province.\u00a0<\/p>\n
