Three hikers killed on Indonesian volcano after ignoring warnings
Three hikers have been killed on an active volcano in Indonesia after reportedly ignoring safety warnings, according to local reporting.
The incident took place on Mount Dukono, where the group was said to have been creating online content when they were caught in the danger area.
The supporting row does not give the exact time of the deaths.
The fatalities underline the risks of entering restricted volcanic terrain, particularly when warnings are in place.
No further details were provided on the identities of the hikers or whether any other people were affected.
Mount Dukono is an active volcano, and the incident appears to have happened despite advice intended to keep visitors away from hazardous areas.
The row does not say what specific conditions were present at the time.
The case is likely to prompt renewed attention on how safety guidance is communicated and enforced at active volcanic sites.
It also highlights the influence of online content creation on risky behaviour in remote locations.
