A Volcanic Eruption Just Started in Iceland

An eruption just started near the crater from the 2021 eruption in Geldingadalir, Iceland, like I had promised, I was close by and this is some of the first footage shot from there but it was windy so I didn't have full range with the drone so I'm leaving a link to close ups images shot from a plane just now. And live cam links of course.

The fissure is longer than then opened up during the 2021 eruption but this is so new that I'm not sure if the area will be evacuated, but it's possible until the scientists see how this plays out, like with gas pollution, and in case the issuer will extend to both or south. As it looks not, the lava will flow to Merardalur valley so this looks like the best case scanner now.

This quick edit is just a small part of a huge photo tour today and I had no time for voiceover since I'm going to stay here in Grindavík longer, and then make a super fine video with HQ footage. And with that I'm sending you best regards from Iceland.
