Another volcanic eruption began a few hours ago near Grindavík on the Reykjanes peninsula of Iceland. It's an extension of the eruption that happened in December 2023. This time, the initial fissure opened only 400-500 metres away from the edge of the town.
Over the last few weeks, every heavy earthmoving machine in Iceland was just north of Grindavík to build defensive walls against lava flows. When the eruption began, the workers drove their earthmoving vehicles along the top of the walls to evacuate. This video shows their extraordinary bravery:
