Iceland volcano erupts for tenth time in three years

From Reuters.

🌋 A volcano near Iceland’s capital Reykjavik erupts for the tenth time in three years, spewing fountains of lava and smoke.

Iceland’s Reykjanes peninsula has seen a string of volcanic eruptions since 2021 when geological systems dormant for around 800 years became active again.

Experts say the region, just south of the capital Reykjavik and home to 30,000 people, could experience so-called fissure eruptions repeatedly for several centuries.
