English: Bezymianny volcano erupting on 7 April 2023. The volcano, about 100 kilometers (60 miles) southwest of Shiveluch, has been puffing with small-scale explosions for weeks, but strong explosions sent volcanic materials soaring up to 10-12 kilometers early in the day on April 7, also prompting KVERT to raise its aviation warning to code red. As this high-altitude ash streamed east, the intensity of the eruption slowed over the course of the day. By the end of the day, KVERT declared the period of strong eruptions over. The Operational Land Imager (OLI) on Landsat 8 acquired imagery of the eruption at 10:15 a.m. local time (00:15 UTC) on April 7. The image shows ash blanketing a snowy landscape to the east of Bezymianny. After a period of quiet that geologists think had spanned roughly 1000 years, Bezymianny erupted violently in 1957. It has been frequently active ever since, according to data published by the Smithsonian Institution’s Global Volcanism Program.
