World News; At least 200 people have been forced to leave their homes after a volcano in Ecuador erupted and spewed ash miles into the air. The "strong explosion" at the Tungurahua volcano could be felt hundreds of miles away, the Geophysics Institute reported. It spewed stones, gases and ash more than 5km (3.1 miles) into the sky, authorities said. The clouds of ash and gas could be seen as far away as the capital Quito, about 153km (95 miles) north of the volcano. There were no reported deaths, according to local media.
