TOKYO–One man was killed and at least 11 people injured, some critically, when rocks from an erupting volcano rained down on skiers at a mountain resort in central Japan on Tuesday and an avalanche soon after the eruption engulfed about a dozen skiers.
Six of those trapped were members of Japan’s Ground Self Defence Force (SDF) engaged in winter training maneuver, Defence Minister Itsunori Onodera said.
