Near Grindavik on Iceland's Reykjanes Peninsula, a volcano erupted on May 29, 2024, marking the fifth eruption since December.
The eruption was characterized by the spewing of lava and smoke, following intense seismic activity in the region.
The Blue Lagoon, a renowned geothermal spa, was evacuated as a precautionary measure.
The eruption was preceded by significant seismic activity, with about 400 earthquakes recorded in the previous week, and substantial magma accumulation detected under the Svartsengi area.
