Indonesia was rocked by the dramatic eruption of Mount Ruang, as hot clouds and spewing ash forced the evacuation of over 12,000 residents. The stunning visuals of the volcano's wrath were captured in videos showing the ominous spectacle. Schools were closed, airports shut down, and the fear of a tsunami loomed large as the volcano continued to unleash its power.

The eruption of Ruang volcano in Indonesia led to a mass exodus of residents, with over 12,000 people being evacuated amidst the chaos. The island of Tagulandang bore the brunt of the volcanic activity, as residents anxiously awaited evacuation at the island's port, seeking safety from the escalating danger. Lightning flashes illuminated the night sky as lava cascaded down the crater, creating a scene straight out of a disaster movie.

The volcanic eruption triggered a state of emergency in Indonesia, with multiple airports closing operations and disrupting travel plans for thousands.

The Mordor-like sky, reminiscent of a scene from a fantasy movie, added an eerie and surreal element to the unfolding natural disaster.

In a surprising turn of events, despite the chaos and destruction caused by the volcano, locals managed to capture breathtaking footage of the eruption. The videos circulating online showcased the raw power of nature and the resilience of the people living in the shadow of Ruang volcano. As Indonesia continues to grapple with the aftermath, the world remains captivated by the mesmerizing yet terrifying spectacle of Mount Ruang's eruption.
