JAKARTA, July 10 (UPI) -- Four airports across Indonesia were closed early Friday after a nearby volcano came to life and spewed ash that drifted for hundreds of miles, officials said.
The eruption of Mount Raung, located on the eastern end of the Indonesian island of Java, led officials to close the airports -- Denpasar, Lombok, Banyuwangi and Jember -- on advice from Indonesian scientists, CNN reported.
