The volcano had for centuries been completely dormant, meaning it was inactive, until it burst once more in 2010 and unfortunately killed two people.

Since then it has erupted in 2013, 2014, and 2016, taking innocent lives with every blast.

On Tuesday morning, the 2nd of March, vulcanologists recorded 13 separate blasts that resulted in the volcano spewing out a massive column of smoke and ash that went as high as 5,000 metres above Sumatra.

Luckily for residents in the surrounding areas (a five-kilometre radius), there was no immediate danger to property or life as it has been unoccupied for many years.
