> Anak Krakatoa’s eruptions sent ash into airspace near Jakarta, prompting Soekarno-Hatta International Airport to suspend 209 flights and affecting more than 22,000 people. Most disrupted services involved Singapore, with other international routes also affected. Authorities said there was no tsunami warning and urged residents to stay indoors and wear masks.
