Udbrud i Grindavik: Vulkanen truer byen med lavastrømme

Grindavik - Iceland - Lava - Vulcanic eruption

Ny vulkanudbrud i sydvestlige Island bringer frisk risiko for indbyggerne i Grindavik. Læs alt om det dramatiske udbrud her!

En vulkan er brudt ud i det sydvestlige Island bare få uger efter en anden udbrud i området, hvilket sætter beboerne i den nærliggende by under frisk risiko. Udbruddet skete lige før kl. 8 søndag morgen efter en række jordskælv nær byen Grindavik, og samfundet blev evakueret i løbet af natten. Den vulkanske revne sender lava mod byen, hvor det skaber kaos og frygt for indbyggerne. Dette er det femte udbrud på Reykjanes-halvøen på kun to år, hvilket gør situationen endnu mere alarmerende. Lava er allerede begyndt at strømme ind i Grindavik, og huse står i flammer, hvilket har ført til evakuering af hele befolkningen.
