  "summary": "Ili Lewotolok volcano in Indonesia’s East Nusa Tenggara province erupted again on September 6, 2026, emitting a 400-metre-high ash column and prompting authorities to tighten safety warnings. The Centre for Volcanology and Geological Hazard Mitigation (PVMBG) urged residents, visitors, climbers, and tourists to stay within a two-kilometre radius of the volcano’s centre, with the exclusion zone extending to three kilometres in the southern and south-eastern sectors. The volcano has experienced several eruptions in recent weeks, with the latest recorded on Tuesday. Authorities warned of potential lava flows, rockfalls, and hot clouds in surrounding sectors, advising residents to wear face masks to protect against volcanic ash. Mount Anak Krakatau and Mount Semeru were also reported to be increasingly active on Sunday, producing volcanic ash in several areas.",
