The Shiveluch volcano in Russia's far eastern Kamchatka peninsula may be gearing up for its first powerful eruption in 15 years, scientists say.
Kamchatka is home to 29 active volcanoes, part of a vast belt of Earth known as the "Ring of Fire" which circles the Pacific Ocean and is prone to eruptions and frequent earthquakes.
According to the United States Geological Survey , these kinds of eruptions typically happen three or four times a year in Kamchatka, requiring air traffic to be rerouted.Shiveluch, with a summit reaching 3,283 metres , is one of the peninsula's most active volcanoes, with an estimated 60 substantial eruptions in the past 10,000 years.
"A growth of the lava dome continues, a strong fumaroles activity, an incandescence of the lava dome, explosions, and hot avalanches accompanies this process," the observatory said.
