Indonesia sees 6 volcanic eruptions following 'doomsday' fish discovery
On August 31, six volcanoes in Indonesia erupted nearly at the same time. This event occurred just six days after a 13-foot oarfish—often referred to as a 'doomsday' fish—was found on the shores of Pink Beach in southeastern Komodo on August 25. The oarfish earned its 'doomsday' nickname because folklore suggests its presence is a precursor to natural disasters like tsunamis, earthquakes, and floods.
