Iceland's Fagradalsfjall volcano, which is around 20 miles away from capital Reykjavik, has begun erupting
Fagradalsfjall is based in an uninhabited valley near the Litli-Hrutur mountain in the southwest of the country.has erupted, but has managed to cause no damage or disruption despite being close to a major airport.
The Iceland Meteorological Office said the"eruption is small and there is presently no emission of ash to the atmosphere" - adding the lava is emerging as"a series of fountains" from a 200 metre long fissure. Officials are asking people not to walk to the site of the eruption, saying there could be"dangerously high levels of volcanic gases" accumulating.
Kristin Gudmundsdottir, a natural hazard specialist at the Met Office, added"it is not a little hike" and that authorities are waiting to"see how the eruption develops". An eruption in the same area in 2021 saw lava flows for months, with hundreds of thousands of people heading to see the seismic activity.
