This natural phenomenon occurred shortly after similar activity was reported at Mount Anak Krakatau. This series of eruptions serves as a reminder for local residents to continue monitoring the situation and follow official instructions from the authorities.
To date, relevant authorities continue to conduct intensive monitoring of Mount Semeru's status. Residents in disaster-prone areas are urged to remain calm but to stay alert to the potential hazards posed by the ongoing eruptive activity.
