  "summary": "Indonesia has raised the alert level for Anak Krakatau volcano to Level III following 13 recorded eruptions in a single day. The Geological Agency made this decision after assessing the volcanic activity since early October. The volcano, located in the Sunda Strait between Java and Sumatra, was previously downgraded to Level II on September 21 due to reduced activity. Since early this month, there have been at least 18 eruptions documented, with the latest eruptions occurring on October 10. The agency has warned residents, visitors, and tourists about potential hazards, including volcanic rocks, heavy ashfall, lava flows, and secondary eruptions. They have also prohibited entry into a five-kilometre radius around the eruption center and areas within one kilometre of two newly formed islands.",
