Indonesia’s Mount Merapi’s eruptions – 2010

Music: O Comme Amour

Mount Merapi's eruptions - 2010

• Since its initial eruptions on October 25, 2010, Indonesia's Mount Merapi continues to spew hot gases and ash as far as 5,000 meters into the atmosphere, wreaking havoc on surrounding villages and farms, and disrupting air travel - and more than 140 people have been killed by the eruptions over the past two weeks. Hundreds of thousands of residents have been displaced, many of them living in temporary shelters until the Indonesian government reduces the existing 20 km "safe zone", and allows them and their livestock to return.
