A volcano has erupted on a small Indonesian island.

Almost 3,000 people have been moved away from the area close to Mount Rokatenda on Palau island.

It’s thought at this stage that 6 people have died.

Video footage on Indonesia’s TVOne showed giant plumes of white and gray smoke and ash belching from the volcano into a sunny blue sky.

The volcano erupted following months of activity, sending smoke and ash up to 2,000 metres into the air.
