Indonesia's Mount Marapi, located in West Sumatra province, unleashed a violent eruption on Sunday, sending plumes of white-and-grey ash soaring more than 3,000 meters (about 9,800 feet) into the sky. The eruption resulted in a cascade of volcanic debris, affecting nearby villages and triggering a massive rescue operation. Authorities, revising the count of hikers on the mountain to 75 over the weekend, located the 11 deceased near the crater during Monday morning's search efforts.
