Manam volcano erupted on Friday, sending volcanic ash as high as 65,000 feet (19,812 m) into the sky, according to the Australian Bureau of Meteorology.
Following the eruption, a Code Red aviation advisory was issued in the region, according to Australia’s Bureau of Meteorology.
The last time the 1,807-meter-high volcano erupted was in 2004, according to Accuweather.com.
However, according to John Search’s volcano live website, Manam volcano, situated on Papua New Guinea’s northern coast, has erupted several times during the last 11 years.
