A remote volcano in the Aleutian Islands has erupted for the first time in 13 years, spewing ash 2 1/2 miles high but posing no immediate threat to a nearby village, the U.S. Geological Survey said Thursday. Korovin volcano, about 1,100 miles southwest of Anchorage, is 12 miles from the tiny village of Atka.
