Lightning appears amid a storm as Mount Ibu spews volcanic material during an eruption, as seen from Gam Ici in West Halmahera.
Mount Ibu erupted on the evening of May 18, sending ash 4km high, as streaks of purple lightning flashed around its crater, according to information and images shared by Indonesia’s volcanology agency. Photos shared by the disaster agency showed workers assisting the elderly, while other residents were moved in pick-up trucks and accommodated in emergency tents for the night.
Indonesia's volcanology agency raised the alert level of the volcano to the highest level on May 16, after Ibu erupted multiple times earlier in May.
