Lewotobi

On 4 November, the volcano spewed molten debris at several villages some away, destroying homes and killing nine people. The Centre of Volcanology and Geological Hazard Mitigation recommended that a radius around the volcano be evacuated. Seven villages were affected by the eruption. A larger eruption occurred on 7 November. On 8 November, the volcano erupted several times, at one time bearing an ash plume with a height reaching 10 km (6.2 mi). On 9 November, it erupted again, and the authorities scrambled to evacuate approximately 16,000 people from nearby villages. The eruption caused flight disruptions in Bali and the cancellation of a jazz festival in Labuan Bajo.
