Volacano Eruption in Nepal?

A volcano eruption was reported in area of Mt Langtang in Rasuwa district in Nepal early Thursday morning. A Nepal Army helicopter was sent to find details about the incident and has reported that the rumours of volcano eruption were baseless.

Nepal Army has said that the smoke coming out of a mountain in the scenic Langtang area in Rasuwa district reportedly after an explosion is not a volcano as reported by a section of the Kathmandu media.

NA spokesperson Suresh Sharma said that a team of NA soldiers sent to Langtang area on a helicopter has returned and confirmed that the smoke emitting out of a mountainous part of the Langtang National Park is not a volcano but a ‘minor wildfire’ that will soon be contained.
