Iceland volcano erupts near village | BBC News


A volcano has erupted in south-west Iceland near the fishing town of Grindavik, which has been evacuated.

The eruption started at about 03:00 GMT on Sunday. Iceland’s public broadcaster RUV says it is not clear which direction the lava is flowing.

"A crack has opened up on both sides of the dikes that have begun to be built north of Grindavik," the country’s met office said.

Grindavik was evacuated in November after another eruption, but residents had been allowed home for periods of time.
