This video was also distributed as the eruption of Mount Agung in Bali in 2017.

If anyone spreads this video the eruption of Mount Merapi is HOAX. This video is an avalanche of hot clouds from Mount Sinabung. Mount Merapi has no hot clouds at this time. This video is also shared as the eruption of Mount Agung in Bali in 2017. Don't spread hoaxes. pic.twitter.com/sflmMByBGc
