One of the world’s most active volcanoes has erupted again in the US state of Hawaii after a two-month pause, spewing fountains of lava more than 24m (79 feet) high.
The Hawaii Volcano Observatory said the eruption of Kilauea was observed Sunday afternoon at the volcano’s summit.
A United States Geological Survey (USGS) livestream from the rim of the caldera showed fountains of lava erupting from multiple fissures in the crater early on Monday.
The Hawaii Emergency Management Agency wrote on social media that the eruption “does not pose a lava threat to communities”.
“However, <a href="https://news.ad-astra.icu/kilauea-volcano-in-hawaii-erupts-for-the-third-time-in-2021.html” title=”Kilauea Volcano in Hawaii Erupts for the Third Time in 2021″>eruptions emit volcanic particles and gases which may create breathing problems for people exposed,” it said.
