Ring of Fire Awakens: Pacific Megaquake First Sparked Tsunami, Now Eurasia’s Tallest Volcano Erupts
Discern Report ^ | July 31, 2025 | Tyler Durden

Posted on 07/31/2025 6:23:15 AM PDT by Red Badger

A tsunami triggered by a massive underwater earthquake off the eastern coast of Russia, impacting Hawaii, Alaska, and the U.S. West Coast in the overnight hours, has now led to the eruption of Eurasia’s highest and most active volcano, located on the Kamchatka Peninsula.

Russian media Tass News said the 8.7 magnitude earthquake that struck off Russia’s Kamchatka was the “largest earthquake since 1952.” It cited the Russian Academy of Sciences, which now says the Klyuchevskaya Sopka volcano has begun to erupt shortly after the quake.

“Right now, Klyuchevskaya Sopka is erupting,” the Russian federal agency wrote in the post with an accompanying photograph of the volcano’s eruption.

Key facts about Klyuchevskaya Sopka:

Height: 4,750 meters (15,580 feet)

Type: Stratovolcano (steep-sided and symmetrical)

Location: Eastern Kamchatka, part of the Pacific “Ring of Fire”

Volcanic activity: One of the most active volcanoes in the world, with frequent eruptions recorded since the 17th century

Last eruption: Ongoing activity is common, with the most recent eruptions typically occurring every few years

Formation: Estimated to have formed about 7,000 years ago More footage of the eruption:

Both the tsunami-triggering quake and the volcanic eruption stem from tectonic movements along the Pacific Ring of Fire, particularly the subduction of the Pacific Plate beneath the Okhotsk Plate. This suggests a major stress release event in the Earth’s crust.

This kind of event cluster in rapid succession could indicate a larger regional stress redistribution, raising the risk of additional quakes or eruptions in adjacent fault lines or volcanoes (e.g., in the Aleutians, Kuril Islands, or even Japan).

Location, location, location.

It sits at the intersection of a marine trench, and a ridge that produces islands.

Someone needs to do a little journalistic research, the Ring of Fire, cue Johnny Cash, has been very active for some time, not just starting with now. I mean jeez, even a lazy YouTube search would have made that clear.

In college I learned you have to load up Kamchatka with armies in order to protect your North and South America holdings.

The dirty little secret is that they’ll be helpless when Cascadia shifts. Well, except that they can concentrate survivors, and relocate them.

Local police and fire are located low, on fill, served by roads that will liquefy in a big quake. And a tsunami from the right direction makes it moot...

It’ll tip over...and it’s near a deep ocean trench.

The large oil and gas field of Sakhalin is one of those deceptive map situations. Well over 1,000 mi from Kamchatka and the quake. No impact.

Planet Earth 🌍🌎🌏 would be just fine
if there wasn’t some giant in outer space 🌌
with a HUGE blowtorch setting the planet
on fire.

Can’t we pass a law against this

Are you saying that there’s no connection between the two events?
