> Jakarta’s main airport and four other travel hubs reopened on Tuesday, after ash from Mount Anak Krakatau disrupted nearly 3,000 flights and affected hundreds of thousands of travellers. Indonesian authorities said the risk of further eruptions remains high, while an NTU expert said the volcano is currently too small to cause a tsunami through a collapse like the one in 2018.
