A powerful eruption from Japan’s Shinmoedake volcano sent a massive ash plume over 3 miles into the sky, covering cities and prompting urgent warnings. Roads disappeared under thick ash, and large volcanic rocks were launched miles from the crater. Authorities are urging people in Kirishima, Kobayashi, and nearby towns to stay alert.

Meanwhile, Russia’s Klyuchevskoy volcano — the largest active volcano in the northern hemisphere — also erupted just hours after a record-breaking 8.8 magnitude earthquake triggered tsunami alerts across the Pacific.

00:00A massive volcano just erupted in Japan, and the sky turned gray in seconds.
00:05At exactly 4.53 a.m. local time, the Shinmedake volcano in southern Japan exploded into life.
00:11It sent a giant ash plume shooting 3.4 miles into the sky.
00:16Authorities immediately issued warnings, because large volcanic rocks were flying through the
00:20air, up to three kilometers from the crater.
00:23People in Kirishima, Kobayashi, and Kogentown were told to stay alert.
00:27Ash covered roads so thickly, even lane markings disappeared.
00:31And the danger's far from over.
00:34Experts say Shinmedake is still active, and more eruptions could follow.
00:38They even warned of pyroclastic flows that can burn everything in their path up to two kilometers
00:42out, and if that sounds bad, remember this.
00:46In 2011, an eruption from the same volcano shattered windows from the shock waves.
00:51Meanwhile in Russia, just hours after a massive 8.8 earthquake, the Kliuchevskoy volcano
00:57also erupted.
00:59It's the largest active volcano in the northern hemisphere.
01:02Its ash plumes reached nearly two miles high, and lava flows were clearly visible.
01:07Is Earth entering a new phase of volcanic activity?
01:10Stay alert, because nature doesn't send warnings twice.
01:13So many times have можно be discovered.
01:14I'm like, where are we, where are you going?
01:16So many people are going to say, where are we?
01:18This is a threat.
01:19No, you guys are going to say, where are you going to occur?
01:22It's really a threat.
01:23Yeah, that's the threat.
01:24And it's the threat.
01:26I'm coming to the threat of an infinite water.
01:27No, you think it's the threat.
01:29I will set up the threat.
01:30There's a threat to your place.
01:32I'll try to get up the threat.
01:34So, you know, I can't through that.
01:36Thanks for the threat.
01:36So, you can also help you.
01:38I have a threat.
