Eight airports across Indonesia have been temporarily closed as a precautionary measure due to the volcanic ash cloud. More than 1,500 flights have been delayed as the ash reached a height of 15 kilometers, posing a significant risk to aircraft. Authorities are continuously monitoring the situation and assessing the impact of the eruption on air traffic. The closures affect travel plans for both domestic and international passengers. Officials have not yet indicated when the airports will reopen, prioritizing passenger safety amid the ongoing volcanic activity near Anak Krakatau.
