Iceland volcano erupts again near Reykjavik prompting evacuations at Blue Lagoon resort

A volcano near Reykjavik, Iceland, erupted again late last night, marking the seventh eruption in a year. The eruption created a 1.8-mile fissure, sending lava and smoke into the air. Around 50 homes were evacuated, along with guests at the Blue Lagoon resort. The last eruption ended on September 6, and the area has faced significant damage from repeated volcanic activity. Experts noted this eruption is smaller than previous ones. Officials stated that while the lava flow is heading west, there is currently no immediate danger to infrastructure.
