A volcano on Russia's eastern Kamchatka Peninsula erupted overnight into Sunday for what scientists said is the first time in hundreds of years, days after a massive 8.8-magnitude earthquake.

The Krasheninnikov Volcano erupted on Sunday, Aug. 3, marking the volcano's first eruption in 600 years. The eruption may be linked to the massive earthquake that hit Russia less than a week earlier and caused tsunami warnings in multiple countries.
