On Monday, Indonesia's Mount Lewotobi Laki-laki volcanic activity is escalating once again.

Therefore, the country raised the alert to the highest after the volcano erupted eight times over the weekend.

Lewotobi Laki-laki threw volcanic ash between 3 km and 5.5 km on Sunday, according to the country's volcanic agency.

The director of the agency said: "Our analysis showed that the activities of Mount Lewotobi Laki-laki are still high so we raised the status level starting on Sunday at 08:00 p.m. (1200 GMT)."

The volcano erupted again on Monday throwing 1.2 km high ash clouds.

The agency warned the residents of the risk of lava flow from the crater. However, there has not been any evacuation or flight cancellations until now.

In March, an eruption at Lewotobi Laki-laki forced several airlines to cancel and delay flights into Bali.
