The volcano, which was inaction on the Kamkatka Peninsula in the Far East of Russia, broke out on Sunday that scientists believe that this happened for the first time within 600 years.
The Keseninikov Vulcan released the ash cloud at an altitude of about six kilometers in the sky, according to the shelter of the crowned shelter. The video showed dense smoke clouds growing from the volcano.
“This is the first historically confirmed explosion of the Krasnikova volcano for 600 years,” said Olga Girina, the head of the Kamchatka team in the field of volcanic eruptions (Kamkatka).
She confirmed that the latest eruption of the volcano occurred in 1463.
On the contrary, the world volcanic program of the Smithsonian Institute, based in the United States, recorded the last explosion of Krasnikov 475 years ago, in 1550. The discourse was not immediately clear.
Before Sunday, officials said that the activity of the volcano was reduced, but warned that “moderate explosive activity” could continue.
The explosion was accompanied by an earthquake of 7.0 mastic, which caused a warning about the tsunami in three areas of the distant Kamkatka region in Russia. The warning was recalled later. No victim reported.
It also follows another seismic event in the past environment, when a strong earthquake of 8.8 sizes shocked the same area and caused a warning about the tsunami through the quiet ocean. Active volcano in this area, KliceVskoy, exploded a few hours after the earthquake.
