Volcano in Ethiopia erupts for first time in nearly 12,000 years
The Hayli Gubbi volcano in Ethiopia's Afar region has erupted for the first time in almost 12,000 years, sending ash clouds up to 9 miles into the sky and across the Red Sea toward Yemen and Oman. Officials report no casualties, though the eruption may affect the livelihoods of local livestock herders.

The Hayli Gubbi volcano in Ethiopia’s Afar region has erupted for the first time in more than 10,000 years, with satellite data confirming towering ash clouds rising nearly 10–15 km high. The plume drifted across the Red Sea toward Yemen and Oman, marking one of the region’s most striking volcanic events in modern observation. Scientists say the sudden awakening of this long-silent shield volcano has drawn global attention due to its scale and rarity. #HayliGubbi | #volcano | #eruption | #Ethiop

A dormant volcano in Ethiopia’s Afar region has suddenly come back to life after thousands of years, releasing a huge ash plume rising up to 12 kilometers into the sky. Strong winds carried the ash across borders, reaching as far as India, disrupting flights and triggering aviation warnings. The unexpected eruption shows how little is still known about remote volcanoes — and how quickly natural events can impact global travel and safety. . . #VolcanoAlert #EthiopiaVolcano #AfarRift #VolcanicAsh
