Climbers die on Lombok volcano
Indonesian rescuers have found the bodies of seven students who died in bad weather while hiking on a volcano on Lombok island, an official said yesterday.
The seven had climbed Mount Rinjani despite a hiking ban since January because of storms and thick fog, said Arief Toengkagie, head of the Mount Rinjani National Park.
