Ethiopia's Hayli Gubbi Volcano Erupts After 12,000 Years, Disrupting Air Travel to India
Ethiopia's Hayli Gubbi volcano erupted on November 23, 2025, for the first time in 12,000 years, unleashing a massive ash plume 14 kilometers high and causing widespread disruption to international air travel, especially impacting flights bound for India. This significant geological event led to numerous flight cancellations by major Indian airlines and prompted aviation advisories, though the ash cloud is anticipated to clear Indian skies by Tuesday evening.
