BOLOGNA – New eruption, on Wednesday 29 May, for the volcano which in Icelandis located near the city of Grindavik, on the Reykjanes peninsula. The volcano, never dormant, has erupted several times since December and the authorities have repeatedly ordered the evacuation of the city of Grindavik, where fewer than three thousand people live. This also happened after Wednesday’s events
The images of the eruption from two days ago, which are circulating on social media, are spectacular but at the same time impressive: you can see the lava rising to a height of 50 metres along a strip along a kilometer. They look like dancing fountains, to give you an idea. But lava. Many have used the expression “wall” of lava to describe the phenomenon. The eruption followed some earthquakes.
