Orange aviation alert: Russian volcano puts on display in latest eruption
> A volcano in Russia’s far east on Wednesday spewed ash several kilometres into the sky, authorities said, putting on a spectacular display in its latest eruption.
> The Shiveluch volcano is one the largest and most active volcanoes on Russia’s remote Kamchatka Peninsula, one of the most intense volcanic regions in the world.
> Its latest eruption produced an ash column reaching nearly 9,000 metres (29,500 feet) above sea level, the local branch of Russia’s Academy of Sciences wrote on Telegram, accompanied by a video.
> An orange aviation alert -- one below the maximum red -- has been issued for the area near the volcano, the Kamchatka Volcanic Eruption Response Team (KVERT) said on Telegram.
