Mexico's Popocatepetl volcano erupts and sends a huge plume of smoke and flaming debris into the sky

An astounding clip shows the Popocatepetl volcano in Mexico erupting

The smoke begins to turn a dark red colour as is spews out of the volcano

It was said that flaming debris had been thrown from the volano's crater during the explosion, with some objects travelling 200 metres

This is the incredible moment a volcano explodes into life sending a huge cloud of smoke into the sky and flaming debris flying.

The Popocatepetl volcano, located between the central Mexican states of Morelos, Puebla and Mexico, burst into life.

In the video, a huge plume of black smoke can be seen coming out from the volcano's crater.
