Anak Krakatau volcano in Indonesia erupted on September 5, 2026, causing significant disruption to air travel. The eruption sent volcanic ash clouds up to 15,000 meters high, affecting six airports across the country, including Jakarta's Soekarno-Hatta International Airport. Over 1,500 flights were grounded, and approximately 170,000 passengers were stranded. Schools in affected areas were ordered to switch to remote learning, and residents were advised to limit outdoor activities and wear protective masks. The volcano, which emerged in 1927, remains under close monitoring.
