However, PVNBG has yet to raise the status of the Bali volcano Mount Agung since it is not full on eruption yet.

It is currently on standby (Level II) which prohibits any human activities within the 6-kilometer radius of Mount Agung’s crater, and 7.5 kilometers from the mountain’s north-northeast and Southeast-South- Southwest position.

Gede stated that PVMBG will continue to monitor the Bali volcano Mount Agung’s activity since the agency predicts that it will continue to develop into a much larger eruption.

The PVMBG also warned people to avoid areas nearby that are considered to be in the danger zone such as Ban, Sebudi, Besakih, Buana Giri, and Dukuh village.
