A massive 8.8 magnitude earthquake hit Russia's Kamchatka Peninsula on July 30, triggering large tsunami waves along the coastlines of Russia and Japan. This earthquake was the strongest in the region since 1952.
The scientists of the Volcanology and Seismology Institute of Russia’s Academy of Science said it was the first time the mass awakening had happened for the first time in 300 years, Associated Press reported.
The 8.8 magnitude earthquake reportedly caused seven volcanoes, including Klyuchevskoi, Krasheninnikov, Avachinsky, and others to wake up in Kamchatka.
