Anak Krakatau

Volcanic island in Indonesia's Sunda Strait between Java and Sumatra, grown inside the caldera left by the 1883 Krakatau eruption; its name means 'child of Krakatau'. Part of its southwest flank collapsed during a 2018 eruption, leaving the island far smaller.

Forty-six seconds of eruption closed eight Indonesian airports for 29 hours

Anak Krakatau's two short bursts cancelled 1,558 flights and stranded 170,000 passengers; Indonesia's Geological Agency says activity has been intensifying since July and it cannot say whether a bigger eruption follows.
