▶️ Newly released aerial footage captured by the Japanese coast guard showed a volcano exploding on a new island formed off the coast of Iwo Jima. The coast guard, which published the footage on November 27, said the volcano erupted on November 23. Sankei Shimbun reported the coast guard said, “there is a fear that it may become active again in the future.” The new island was seen as the coast guard flew over Iwo Jima on November 10, and was confirmed then to have a volcanic vent. #Japan #IwoJim
