Indonesia’s Anak Krakatoa volcano erupts, belches huge ash tower

JAKARTA (AFP) – The offspring of Indonesia’s infamous Krakatoa volcano erupted several times on Tuesday, sending a huge volcanic ash tower some 2,500 metres into the sky.

Mount Anak Krakatoa, which means Child of Krakatoa, erupted four times, officials said, with the biggest followed by another that sent a column of smoke and ash 1,500 metres above its crater.
