Icelandic Volcanic Eruption Forces Evacuation of Blue Lagoon and Grindavik

A volcanic eruption in Iceland has led to the evacuation of the Blue Lagoon geothermal spa and the town of Grindavik. The lava is flowing from a fissure on the Reykjanes Peninsula, following an intense seismic swarm. The Icelandic government assured that the volcanic activity is localized and does not affect the rest of the country’s infrastructure or attractions, emphasizing that Icelanders have adapted to living with such phenomena.
