However, there are no warning people to evacuate. The government only calls people not to areas near volcanoes, at least within a radius of 2.5 km from the foot of the mountain, and ready to respond in case of emergency.

According to Mr. Nugroho, another eruption may be imminent.

BNPB's rapid response force was at the site, providing relief supplies to North Sulawesi regional branch and branch in Tomohon city, where the crater erupted.

BNPB director of North Sulawesi, Hayke, said the mountain erupted many times in recent months and could continue to erupt in the near future.

The government is currently maintaining a level 3 warning level.
