A volcanic eruption restarted in Iceland, with lava flow threatening the already severely damaged fishing town Grindavik.
An eruption, the eighth on the same volcanic rift since late 2023, started at 9:45 am local time yesterday “just north of the protective barrier by Grindavik,” the Met Office said in a statement. The eruptive rift reached behind the protective barriers that have saved the town in the most recent incidents, it said.
