Observation on #Karangetang volcano's eruptive activity on 2 Feb 2019 disclosed that the lava flow has reached 2.5 km from its N crater & about 500 m from Batuare river road in Kali. It is likely that collapse of lava front may cause pyroclastic flows - Sources: PVMBG & Sentinel2

Twentieth-century eruptions have included frequent explosive activity sometimes accompanied by pyroclastic flows and lahars. Lava dome growth has occurred in the summit craters; collapse of lava flow fronts has also produced pyroclastic flows.
