Bali volcano: More than 75000 evacuated
- 7 years ago
Bali is on volcano watch amid rumblings from Mount Agung and warnings that it could erupt at any time.
More than 75,000 people have now been evacuated from an exclusion zone around the volcano, which is around 70 kilometers (43 miles) north of Bali's main tourist areas of Kuta and Seminyak.
That's more than the number of people who live there, but others outside the zone are also fleeing to evacuation centers on the island, according to the Indonesian National Disaster Management Agency.
