The explosive eruption at the volcano continues.

A heavy black billowing ash column followed a minor explosion from the Aira caldera at 06:36 local time yesterday. Ejected incandescent material could be seen in the attached video, which resulted in a small glowing rockfall avalanche.
Soon after the explosion, a vigorous continuing bursting, about 6 minutes long, was spewing fine, dense ash emissions. The plume rose about 1,200 meters above the crater and dissipated south.
Magma is being stored in magma chamber within the Aira caldera where continues to accumulate in the long-term period.
The warning bulletin states that ballistic impacts of volcanic bombs and pyroclastic flows could affect an area of about 2 km distance from the main crater.
