Chinese President Xi Jinping conveyed to former Taiwan President Ma Ying-jeou on Wednesday that external interference would not impede the "family reunion" between the two sides of the Taiwan Strait. He emphasised that all issues are open for discussion. Since the Republic of China government retreated to Taiwan in 1949 following a civil war loss to Mao Zedong's communists, no sitting Taiwanese leader has visited China. However, Ma, who served as president from 2008 to 2016, broke this pattern last year, marking the first visit by a former Taiwanese leader to China. This visit, Ma's second, occurs amid heightened military tensions in the region.

On April 17, hundreds of villagers on
Ruang Island, North Sulawesi, were ordered
to evacuate by Indonesian authorities.

"erupted at least five times," CNN reports. .
Authorities fear that Mount Ruang
could collapse into the ocean and trigger
a tsunami, just like it did in 1871.
Earthquakes that recently occurred in the
area reportedly triggered the eruptions. .
The force of Mount Ruang’s
eruption is getting bigger and
has emitted hot clouds of
approximately 1.7 kilometers, Hendra Gunawan, the head of Indonesia's volcanology agency, via CNN.
About 800 people live on Ruang Island.
According to authorities, they have
evacuated to Tagulandang Island. .
Officials warn that even those on Tagulandang Island should be aware of possible "falling incandescent rocks and hot cloud surges," CNN reports. .
There have been no casualties reported thus far.
Indonesia, which sits on the Ring of Fire,
has over 120 active volcanoes.
