  • About 5:00 pm on September 30th, a magnitude 7.6 earthquake struck just offshore of the town of Padang in Sumatra, Indonesia. The quake toppled buildings and started many landslides, smashing homes and swallowing up entire villages. The following day, As rescue workers arrived and residents tried their best to dig out and help the survivors, another unrelated quake with a magnitude of 6.6 struck less than 1,000 km south of the original epicenter. Each of the two quakes had at least one aftershock greater than 5.0 as well

Some of these flows are reaching up to 5 km from the summit of Sinabung."

    "At least 16 people have died after Mount Sinabung erupted on the Indonesian island of Sumatra. The 8,530ft peak spewed out lava and gas, sending burning ash on to its slopes. Thousands fled on foot and in vehicles to escape the deadly clouds. The volcano had been rumbling for months and people had only recently moved back to their homes after it was believed the seismic activity was diminishing"
