TL;DR

Indonesia's Anak Krakatau volcano has erupted at least seven times since late Friday, spewing ash as high as 3 kilometers into the air. The volcano island, located in Indonesia's Sunda Strait, has been on the second-highest alert since 2018, when a deadly tsunami was caused by the explosive collapse of the mountain. No casualties have been reported in the latest eruption, and no evacuation order has been issued. The nearest settlement is 16 1/2 kilometers away.
