The overnight eruption of the Krashennikov volcano in Kamchatka, the first in 600 years, is believed to be related to the devastating earthquake that struck Russia’s Far East last week. The Russian state news agency RIA and scientists have reported this information. NDTV reported this citing news agency Reuters. \u201cThis is the first historically confirmed eruption of the Krashennikov volcano in 600 years,\u201d RIA quoted Olga Girina, head of the Kamchatka volcano eruption response team, as saying. She added that the eruption could be linked to a recent strong earthquake, which triggered tsunami warnings as far away as French Polynesia and Chile, and then to the eruption of Klyuchevskoy, the most active volcano on the Kamchatka Peninsula. Girina said on the Telegram channel of the Institute of Volcanology and Seismology that Krashennikov\u2019s last lava flow occurred in 1463 \u2013 more or less 40 years ago \u2013 and that no eruptions have been reported since then. The Kamchatka branch of Russia’s emergency services ministry said the volcano’s eruption sent a plume of ash up to 6,000 meters (3.7 miles) high. The volcano itself is 1,856 meters high. “The plume of ash is drifting eastward, towards the Pacific Ocean. There are no populated areas in its path,” the ministry said in a telegram.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
