Jakarta, Shawwal 14, 1439, Jun 28, 2018, SPA -- A number of flights were cancelled on Thursday after Mount Agung volcano on the Indonesian resort island of Bali erupted, but the airport and air traffic remained open. Denpasar airport spokesman I Gusti Ngurah Rai Arie Ahsanurrohim said that cancellations were entirely at the discretion of the airlines and that the airport is operating normally. Mount Agung has been spewing fresh clouds of ash up to 2,000 meters into the air since Wednesday. The volcano's warning level remains one notch below the highest advisory, dpa reported. Authorities raised the warning alert to the highest level on November 22 and ordered the evacuation of people living nearby after two days of eruptions. The alert level was lowered on February 10 after a decrease in activity. --SPA 03:34 LOCAL TIME 00:34 GMT 0038 www.spa.gov.sa/w709745
