Nov. 4 (Bloomberg) -- Indonesia's Mount Kelud volcano in Java began erupting around dawn today, the country's Volcanology and Geological Hazard Mitigation Agency said.

Kelud spewed white ash as high as 500 meters, Saut Simatupang, head of the agency, said today in a telephone interview. ``The eruption isn't over,'' Simatupang said. ``What we saw this morning was a small eruption.''
