Rescuers worked through the night to find dozens of hikers stranded on Mount Marapi on the island of Sumatra after it spewed an ash tower 3,000 metres (9,340 feet)-taller than the volcano itself into the sky on Sunday.

Twelve were missing, three more were found alive and 49 had safely descended from the crater, some with burns and fractures, the official said.
