The Shiveluchi volcano is one of the most active volcanoes in Russia.
The Šiveluch volcano erupted on Tuesday in Russia, shooting ash clouds up to 20 kilometers high. At the same time, the villages in the vicinity were covered in gray volcanic ash.
The Shiveluchi volcano is one of the most active volcanoes in Russia. It is located on the Kamchatka Peninsula, right next to Russia’s eastern border.
The ash cloud from the volcano spread over an area of more than 108,000 square kilometers. A flight warning has been issued for the area.
The lava that flowed from the volcano melted a large amount of snow, which is why motorists have been warned of possible mudslides. Local schools have also been closed due to the volcanic eruption.
