Japan is shocked The eruption of the Sakurajima volcano scares the people of Kagoshima

After several weeks of relative calm, the Sakurajima volcano in Japan has resumed activity. On November 21, around 13:30 local time, the volcano threw out large plumes of smoke and ash. The height of the column of smoke and ash reached 3200 meters. The Sakurajima volcano is located near the city of Kagoshima, with a population of 600, 000 people, and the locals experienced a sense of anxiety. The histogram of seismicity shows that the frequency of volcanotectonic earthquakes has slightly increased since November 15th. Sulfur dioxide emissions, on the other hand, have been significantly reduced. Volcanologists recorded a sulfur output of 1100 tons per day. Researchers suggest that at great depths under the Aira caldera there is a large amount of magma. The warning bulletin states that pyroclastic flows could affect an area about 2 km from the main crater. Alert level 3 remains in effect, access to the volcano is blocked.
