Indonesia’s Mount Sinabung erupted Monday, belching a massive column of ash and smoke 5,000 metres into the air and plunging local communities into darkness with a thick layer of debris.

There were no reports of injuries or deaths from Monday morning’s blast, but authorities warned of possible lava flows and more eruptions. Small communities nearby were coated in a layer of thick ash as at least one village went from day to night in a matter of minutes. “Locals were gathering after the eruption without using face masks because they were all panicking,” said local disaster agency chief Natanael Perangin-angin.
