  "account": "Gunung Semeru, the highest active volcano in Indonesia, erupted seven times within hours on Wednesday morning, spewing volcanic ash up to 1,000 meters above its peak, according to the Indonesia Centre for Volcanology and Disaster Mitigation (PVMBG). The most intense eruptions occurred at 5.58 am and 8.02 am local time, both releasing ash clouds that ranged from white to gray as they drifted in different directions. The ash plume from the 5.58 am eruption moved northward, while the one from the 8.02 am eruption headed east-northeast. These eruptions took place in the region where Semeru, standing at 3,676 meters above sea level, straddles the Lumajang and Malang districts in East Java.",
