Drone footage of the area surrounding Mount Agung shows evacuated villages as residents flee from the ash-spewing volcano.
The eerie footage from ABC News shows the emptiness of the fields and villages as more than 75,000 people were evacuated from the area.
The latest seismic readings show more than 1,000 tremors in the past 24 hours with videos showing smoke and ash spewing from Mount Agung
The Indonesian Center for Volcanology and Geological Hazard Mitigation (CVGHM) has raised the Bali volcano alert to 4, meaning an eruption can be expected at any time.
More than 1,000 tremors were recorded on the Bali Volcano on Monday and Tuesday, including a magnitude 4.2 quake at 11am BST on September 26.
After the quake, the European-Mediterranean Seismological Center tweeted: “Strongest quake so far while the volcano may be about to erupt.
“Agung volcano is said to be close to erupting and the Bali island just taken by a M4.2 earthquake.”
More frequent shallow earthquakes could be a sign a new batch of magma has moved just under the summit of the Bali volcano, according to Volcano Discovery.
Devy Kamil Syahbana, a seismologist from Indonesia’s volcanology centre, said he’d never seen such high seismic energy on Mount Agung.
He said: “We need to pay attention because these kinds of earthquakes indicate the movement of magma and increase the probability of an eruption.”
The latest Foreign Office advice to Britons planning to visit the region warned “an eruption is possible in the next 24 hours”.
The Foreign Office said: “You should follow the advice of the local authorities and stay outside the exclusion zone. If there is an eruption, volcanic ash clouds could cause flight disruptions.
“In the event of volcanic ash clouds you should confirm your travel arrangements directly with your airline or travel agent before travelling to the airport.
