People have been ordered to stay at least 6 kilometers from the 725-meter mountain. More than 11,000 people live in the affected area and were told to leave. At least 800 have done so. Eruptions Wednesday evening spewed volcanic ash approximately 70,000 feet into the atmosphere, according to the Australian Bureau of Meteorology’s Volcanic Ash Advisory Centre. The bureau said in a statement Thursday it was tracking and forecasting the ash dispersion.
