Russia’s Klyuchevskoy volcano has erupted, sending ash clouds 7 km high. Experts link the activity to a recent 8.8-magnitude earthquake, with six volcanoes now active in the Kamchatka region.

The Krasheninnikov Volcano in Russia’s Far East has erupted for the second time in 24 hours, launching a massive ash plume 4 kilometers into the sky. Following an earlier 6km blast, the rare double eruption has stunned volcanologists and triggered aviation alerts across the Kamchatka Peninsula.
