Days before the #anniversary of the 2004 #IndianOceanTsunami , Indonesia is rocked with a volcanic tsunami from Anak Krakatau, the little sister of Krakatoa volcano. Lack of early warning detection systems leaves Indonesia with little evacuation time and high death tolls.

Today we remember the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami

The 2004 Indian Ocean earthquake and tsunami were one of the world's deadliest natural disasters claiming the lives of nearly 230,000 people across 14 countries.
