"New Volcanic Eruption Hits Southwest Iceland, Prompting Evacuations"

A volcano in southwestern Iceland erupted for the third time since December, triggering the evacuation of the Blue Lagoon spa and sending jets of lava into the sky. The eruption began along a three-kilometer fissure northeast of Mount Sundhnukur, with no immediate threat to the nearby town of Grindavik or a major power plant. The nearby Blue Lagoon thermal spa was safely evacuated, and dramatic video shows fountains of lava soaring into the skies. This eruption signals a period of upheaval on the Reykjanes Peninsula, and it's unclear whether the residents of Grindavik will ever be able to return permanently.
