Indonesia’s Marapi volcano erupts for second day as 12 climbers remain missing
Indonesian authorities halted the search for 12 climbers on Monday after the Mount Marapi volcano erupted again, unleashing a new burst of hot ash as high as 2,629ft (800m) into the air, officials said.
The bodies of 11 climbers were recovered earlier in the day – during the search for those missing – but attempts to relocate them were hindered by the renewed activity, West Sumatra’s Search and Rescue Agency head Abdul Malik said.
