Mount Marapi Volcano Eruption Claims Multiple Lives

Rescuers searching the hazardous slopes of Indonesia's Mount Marapi volcano found 11 more bodies of climbers who were caught by a surprise weekend eruption, raising the number of confirmed dead to 22. One person remains missing. New eruptions on Monday and Tuesday spewed more hot ash, reducing visibility and temporarily halting search and recovery operations. The rescuers faced bad weather, difficult terrain, and heat from the eruptions. Marapi has been at the third highest alert level since 2011, and climbers and villagers must stay more than 3 kilometers from the peak.
