A powerful 7.0 magnitude earthquake struck off the far east coast of Russia, near Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky, triggering the eruption of the Shiveluch volcano. The earthquake caused severe shaking in the coastal city, but there were no reports of damage or injuries.
A tsunami warning was also issued. The Kamchatka Peninsula, where the earthquake occurred, is part of the Pacific Ring of Fire and is known for its volcanic activity.
The eruption of the Shiveluch volcano led to an ash cloud alert for aircraft. Scientists have warned of the potential for a stronger earthquake in the region.
Several aftershocks have been recorded following the initial quake. Emergency teams have been dispatched to assess the situation and ensure the safety of the residents.
The situation is being closely monitored by the authorities.
