"Iceland Volcano Erupts Again, Forcing Evacuations"
TL;DR
A volcano in southwestern Iceland has erupted, sending lava 50 meters into the air and forcing the evacuation of the Blue Lagoon spa. This is the fifth eruption since December on the Reykjanes peninsula near Reykjavik. The lava flow, described as a "curtain of fire," is approximately 2.5 km in length, and the fissure appears to be growing.
