In world news: Indonesia closed a domestic airport in eastern part of the country today after a volcano spewed ash 2,000 metres into the air, an official said.
Mount Gamalama, which forms the entire island of Ternate in North Maluku province, erupted late yesterday and forced an airport in Ternate town at its foot to close today, transport ministry spokesman Bambang Ervan said.
