Fine ash covers the caldera as smoke rises from the crater of Mount Tangkuban Parahu on Sunday (28/7/2019) in West Java, along the border between West Bandung regency and Subang regency. The stratovolcano erupted on Friday (26/7), spewing a column of volcanic ash at least 200 meters high from Ratu Crater and covering the nearby tourist destination with a blanket of fine ash more than 1-centimeter deep.

Thankfully, from the news on Monday (29/7/2019), we know that the volcanic activity of Mount Tangkuban Parahu is decreasing. Its status was declared normal on Sunday.

The volcano, located on the border of West Bandung and Subang regencies, West Java, erupted on Friday (26/7) afternoon. On one side, there is information that signs of Tangkuban Parahu’s eruption had been detected and submitted to the relevant government agencies, but there is also information that the eruption was not preceded by vibrations or an earthquake.
