The ash and cinders erupted can bury entire villages and kill many people. The lava from composite volcanoes generally does not kill people because most lava from composite volcanoes is highly viscous lava moves slowly enough for people to move out of the way of the lava flow. However, it does destroy crops and the force of the lava can knock entire buildings down.
