"Captivating Video Captures Iceland's Volcano Eruption Near Capital"

A volcano on the Reykjanes peninsula in southwest Iceland erupted for the third time in three years, just 20 miles away from the capital city of Reykjavik. The eruption, captured on video, followed weeks of intense earthquake activity in the area. Initially, officials warned of life-threatening toxic gas, but the eruption has since slowed and the fissure has shrunk. Access to the volcano has been restricted, and residents in the area were advised to close their windows and ventilation. Domestic flights were delayed due to the plume of smoke. This eruption is classified as a fissure eruption, which is less explosive and dangerous compared to other types of eruptions.
