A new phase of activity has started at Anak-Krakatau in Indonesia
Anak-Krakatau in Indonesia erupted on June 19, 2018, sending an ash plume that reached a few hundred meters above the summit after dissipating slowly.
It is still too early to say if it is a sign of a new, more robust eruptive phase, but clearly shows that the volcano is restless that could result in an eruption in the near to medium future. The last explosion of the volcano occurred on February 19, 2017.
According to satellite images, thermal radiation has increased in the last few months, indicating that magma is near the surface.
