Indonesia's Mount Sinabung erupts, belching a massive column of ash and smoke 5,000 metres (16,400 feet) into the air and coating local communities in debris. The volcano on Sumatra island has been rumbling since 2010 and saw a deadly eruption in 2016. Activity had picked up in recent days, including a pair of smaller eruptions at the weekend. IMAGES
Oozing volcanic mud, known as lahar, blanketed numerous villages on the Indonesian island of Bali after seeping from Mount Agung’s rumbling volcano on Tuesday. The grey mud, which is a mixture of pyroclastic rock and water, flowed along rivers, streams and creeks as tens of thousands continue to evacuate from areas near the volcano. Indonesia's National Disaster Agency ordered anyone within a 10 kilometer, or 6.2 mile, radius to leave immediately, fearing a “major” eruption.

The continuing volcanic eruption of Mount Etna on the island of Sicily could be sighted on Tuesday. The 10,922 foot high mountain has been spewing lava since Monday. Mount Etna is Europe's most active volcano and lies between the cities of Messina and Catania. The current eruption originates at the south-eastern crater and is visible from the east coast of Sicily. The last time Etna erupted was in May 2016 and, according to experts, the current eruption does not threaten nearby settlements.
The eruption is around 40 kilometres (25 miles) from Reykjavik, near the site of the Mount Fagradalsfjall volcano in southwestern Iceland that erupted for six months in March-September 2021, mesmerising tourists and spectators who flocked to the scene. IMAGES
