Iceland Evacuates Town as Volcano Erupts Again

A volcano on Iceland’s Reykjanes Peninsula erupted again, prompting the evacuation of the town of Grindavik and a nearby spa center. The Icelandic Meteorological Office reported that the eruption began at 09:45 local time, forming a 700-meter-long crack in the ground.

Authorities had closed off the area before the eruption. The volcano, which last erupted in December 2023, has been intermittently active since 2021.
