One of Russia's tallest volcanoes
One of Russia's tallest volcanoes just produced its largest eruption in 29 years, sending a several hour long and sustained plume of ash to a height of more than 40,000 feet. As a result, large pyroclastic flows were generated, lahars covered sections of roads more than 50 kilometers away, and schools and two towns were temporarily closed. What had just occurred was a large vulcanian eruption, likely triggered by the destruction of a brand new small volume summit cinder cone at this stratovolcano.

Note: This video's thumbnail image actually shows an image from the 1992 eruption of Alaska's Mount Spurr. Despite being a different volcano, this photo well represents what Klyuchevskoy looked like during its peak eruptive phase on November 1st 2023 in the opinion of GeologyHub.
A Special Thanks to: Katya, a resident of the village of Klyuchi (in Russia) for granting me permission to a photo they took of the Klyuchevskoy volcano.
