ONGOING ERUPTION OF SINABUNG VOLCANO, INDONESIA
Until 2010, Indonesia's Sinabung volcano was dormant, with no confirmed eruptions in the historical record. A brief burst of activity in August and September 2010 caused the temporary evacuation of about 30,000 nearby residents. Just three years later, fresh gas and ash plumes marked the arrival of a new series of eruptions that have continued into mid-January, 2014.
