Reasons for such natural disasters in Indonesia
Indonesia, a vast archipelago of 270 million people, is frequently affected by earthquakes, volcanic eruptions and tsunamis due to its location on the Ring Of Fire, an arc of volcanoes and fault lines in the Pacific Ocean. Last year, a 5.6-magnitude earthquake struck the city of Cianjur in West Java, killing at least 331 people and injuring nearly 600. It was the deadliest in Indonesia since the Sulawesi earthquake and tsunami in 2018, which killed about 4,340 people.
