Firebombs from Indonesian volcano
At least 10 people died after Mount Lewotobi Laki-laki erupted, and spewed firebombs that landed four kilometres away and burned houses.
The local government declared a state of emergency for the next 58 days so the central government could help provide aid to 10,000 affected residents.

Harris emphasised she would work for a peaceful transfer of power – likely a reference to Trump’s refusal to accept his loss in 2020.
Note to MAGA:
This is how Democracy is supposed to function.
