Fuego Volcano Persists in Dangerous Eruption as Guatemalans Evacuate
Guatemala’s Fuego volcano remains dangerous in a days-long eruption, with activity gradually reducing but ongoing risks from collapsing summit material that could trigger pyroclastic flows. Ashfall has affected about 29,000 people, and more than 1,700 have been evacuated. Authorities warn lahars could form if rain arrives, three regions are under red alerts, and roads and schools are being affected, while the main airport stays open and monitoring continues for roughly 72 hours.
