A village on one of the many islands was almost completely wiped out, the government said, with only a few buildings left standing.
Many other villages across the archipelago had also suffered severe damage. Tongan rescue teams were sent to the worst-hit areas.
In its first public declaration since the eruption, the government called it “an unprecedented disaster.”
