The Reykjanes Peninsula has seen its seventh eruption since December 2023, with the latest forming a 3-kilometre fissure and sparking concerns over gas emissions.
Authorities warn of potential air traffic disruptions due to eruptions while ensuring that the safety of residents, particularly in Reykjavik, remains a priority.
The series of eruptions since 2021 marks a significant shift for the Reykjanes Peninsula, which had previously experienced eight centuries of calm.
With frequent eruptions leading to property damage in Grindavík, the ongoing volcanic activity raises serious concerns about the long-term safety and stability of the region.
