Indonesia's Mount Sinabung erupted on Wednesday, spewing a massive column of smoke and ash into the sky.

지난 수요일 인도네시아 시나붕 화산이 폭발하면서 거대한 연기 기둥과 화산재가 하늘로 뿜어졌다.



The eruption of the volcano in North Sumatra province lasted about 12 minutes, a local geological agency said.

인도네시아 지질청은 수마트라 북부 지방 시나붕 화산 폭발이 약 12분간 지속됐다고 밝혔다.



"The volcanic material reached 4,500 metres into the air," the head of the agency's Sinabung monitoring post, Armen Putra, told AFP.

시나붕 화산 관측소 소장인 아르멘 푸트라는 AFP통신에 "화산재가 4500m 상공까지 치솟았다"고 전했다.



An image shared by the agency showed a column of thick, dark smoke coming from the crater.

지질청이 제공한 사진에는 분화구에서 나오는 짙고 어두운 연기 기둥이 나타나 있었다.



Clouds of smoke and ash travelled 1,000 meters away from the peak, the agency added.

이어 연기 구름과 화산재가 정상에서 1000미터 떨어진 곳까지 이동했다고 덧붙였다.



No evacuation orders were issued because the debris did not reach the nearest villages and there was no reported disruption to flights in the area. (AFP)


화산재가 인근 마을까지 닿지 않아 해당 지역 비행기 운행에 차질이 생긴 바 없어 대피 명령이 내려지지 않았다.
