A powerful eruption rocked Japan as the Sakurajima volcano in Kagoshima Prefecture blasted a towering ash plume 4,400 meters into the sky. The explosion, which occurred around 12:57 AM, marks the most intense activity at the Minamidake crater since October last year. Volcanic rocks were hurled far down the slopes, though no injuries or damage have been reported so far.
Japan’s meteorological agency issued ashfall forecasts across several prefectures, reminding the nation just how active and unpredictable its volcanic landscape can be. This comes only days after the government released a simulation showing the potential devastation of a future Mt. Fuji eruption—a chilling warning, as that volcano hasn't erupted in over 300 years.
