A volcano has erupted in southwestern Iceland, sending a flash of light into the evening sky and spewing semi-molten rock into the air.
The eruption Monday night appears to have occurred about four kilometers (2 miles) from the town of Grindavik, the Icelandic Meteorological Office said. The town near Icelands main airport was evacuated in November after strong seismic activity damaged homes and raised fears of an imminent eruption.
Iceland, which sits above a volcanic hot spot in the North Atlantic, averages an eruption every four to five years.
