The blast on Sunday, Nov. 23, around 10 am local time (1300GMT) was unusually strong in size and sound, described as one of the most powerful eruptions in recent years, state broadcaster Fana reported, citing eyewitnesses.

Volcanic ash from the Ethiopian Hayli Gubbi volcano has affected the air traffic in India since Monday, with several flights canceled.

At least seven international flights were cancelled, and over 10 overseas flights were delayed at the Delhi airport on Tuesday due to the ash plumes, according to the Press Trust of India.

Air India has cancelled 13 flights since Monday, while other carriers, including Akasa Air, have also taken similar measures.

The clouds are drifting towards the western parts of India, according to reports.

Erta Ale, an active volcanic zone in northern Ethiopia, includes several volcanoes, such as Hayli Gubbi.
