Volcano eruption leaves thousands stranded in Bali
Hundreds of people have been forced to flee their homes and 16,000 passengers have seen flights cancelled after a volcano erupted in Indonesia.
The eruption of Mount Agung on the island of Bali spewed ash 8,200ft into the air, grounding 276 flights in and out of Ngurah Rai airport.
People living in villages below have fled to evacuation centres.
"Micro tremors are still being detected... indicating that magma is moving towards the surface," Sutopo Purwo Nugroho of the disaster mitigation agency said.
He said 309 residents living in a danger area 2.5 miles from the crater had voluntarily gone to three evacuation centres on Friday.
Hundreds of passengers were queuing near the terminal of the airport to get updates from airlines, while some slept on the floor next to their baggage.
"I was very upset when I got to the airport and it was closed. My stuff has been sitting on the ground for 24 hours, and don't have any accommodation," Australian traveller Caitlin Bigg said.
Briton Ross Webb said he may have to extend his stay.
