Mt. Soputan erupts in N. Sulawesi
Officials have established an 8-kilometer exclusion zone around Mount Soputan in South Minahasa, North Sulawesi, after the volcano erupted Sunday morning.
The eruption started around 6 a.m. Sunday, not long after the Volcanology and Geological Disaster Mitigation Center (PVMBG) increased the volcano's status from "caution" to "alert" - one step below the most serious level of "danger", according to Surono, the government's top volcanologist.
?Mt. Soputan has erupted 6,000 meters into the air and has sent searing clouds moving westward,? Surono said in a text message sent to tempointeraktif.com.
