Two Singaporean nationals missing following the eruption of Mount Dukono on Indonesia’s Halmahera island were confirmed dead on Sunday (May 10), the local rescue agency said.
Rescuers found the bodies holding each other under rock debris around the crater rim, agency head Iwan Ramdani said. The bodies were retrieved in a difficult operation due to extreme terrain and rainfall, he said, and were undergoing autopsy in a local hospital. The evacuation was also hampered by persistent eruptions, he added.
