Is Ivao Group erupting right now?

NASA's Earth Observatory Natural Event Tracker (EONET) has an open volcanic event for Ivao Group, last updated May 29, 2026 (150 days ago). EONET opens an event when agencies such as the Smithsonian Global Volcanism Program report eruptive activity or unrest, and closes it when activity ends.

No satellite thermal hot spot was detected within 10 km of the summit in the latest NASA FIRMS data, so there is no sign of lava at the surface large enough for VIIRS to see (clouds can hide it).

Earthquakes near Ivao Group

USGS has no earthquake within 50 km of Ivao Group in the past 30 days. Outside the United States USGS mainly lists quakes above about M4, so small volcanic tremors recorded by the local observatory will not appear here.

About Ivao Group

Ivao Group is a cinder cone in Kuril Is, Russia, rising to 1,426 m (4,679 ft). NOAA NCEI classes its eruptive history as "Holocene".

Flights and volcanic ash

No major hub airport is within 400 km (the closest is Narita, 1356 km away), but ash clouds from explosive eruptions can drift for thousands of kilometres along flight routes.

Volcanic Ash Advisory Centres (VAACs) issue the official ash advisories that airlines and air traffic control follow.

Other volcanoes in Russia

Russia has 45 volcanoes on this site that erupted since 1900 or are active now, 3 of them with an open NASA activity report today. The closest other one is Kolokol Group, 45 km away.
