Anak Krakatau Eruption Leaves 8 Missing in Indonesia
Indonesia's Anak Krakatau volcano erupted in early September, sending plumes of gas and ash high into the atmosphere. The eruption has prompted ongoing search and rescue operations as eight people remain missing, including five journalists who were in the area covering the event. Anak Krakatau, which means 'Child of Krakatau,' sits in the Sunda Strait between Java and Sumatra and is one of the world's most active volcanoes. The volcano has a history of explosive eruptions, including a catastrophic event in 2018 that triggered a tsunami. Authorities continue to monitor the situation as volcanic activity in the region persists.
