Kilauea Volcano Erupts in Hawaii

In the U.S. state of Hawaii, the Kilauea volcano continues to erupt. Yesterday, it ejected lava fountains approximately 300 meters high. As a result, authorities temporarily closed a portion of Hawaii Volcanoes National Park and a segment of a major highway. The reason was the fallout of volcanic glass and ash. This marks the 43rd eruptive episode since the activity began in December 2024. For now, the lava remains confined within the volcano's crater and does not pose a threat to populated areas. The duration of each eruption varies; some last for several days, while others end within a few hours.
