Disaster Situation
Indonesia's Mount Agung in Bali erupted for the second time on Saturday (Nov 25), occurred at 5.30pm local time. The Indonesian Volcanology and Geological Disaster Mitigation Center (PVMBG) has raised the alert level of Mount Agung from three level to four level from 6am on Monday, indicating eruption hazards on and near the volcano. "We raise the status because the eruptions of Mount Agung have shifted from phreatic to magmatic ones, since red glow was seen from the peak of the Mount Agung on Sunday at 9 p.m. local time," I Gede Suantika, mitigation head of PVMBG, said here, Monday.
