Fears of the 'big one': Volcano explodes 1.8 miles high hours after massive earthquake

The Karymsky volcano in Russian Kamchatka's eastern volcanic zone spewed ash up to 3km into the air, according to the Regional Emergencies Ministry.
Airlines have been placed on an "orange" warning to avoid the area following today's eruption.
It came less than 48 hours hours after a magnitude 7.3 earthquake tore through the region, followed by a series of at least seven less powerful aftershocks.
