Moscow: A significant volcanic eruption in Kamchatka, a peninsula in far-eastern Russia, has prompted the Federal Agency for Air Transport, Rosaviatsiya, to issue a strong recommendation to aircraft to evaluate their flight paths.
Rosaviatsiya said that the Bezymianny volcano, one of the most active in the area and located in the eastern section of the peninsula, erupted on Friday morning with a 12,000-meter column of ash that subsequently began to drift towards the southeast.

no, it was fired by Russian-supplied-and-funded rebels
that’s why they whisked that launcher out of there as fast as they could

Years ago a British Airways 747 was flying from London to Australia and while flying over Indonesia they flew through a thin cloud of volcanic ash that nobody knew was there. The ash caused all 4 engines to shut down. The crew eventually managed to get at least two or three of the engines restarted but the report I read said that at one point there were passengers kneeling in the aisles praying.
Yes, I remember that being in the news. Close call!
Yeah, GeologyHub is pretty cool. :-)
