'Orange like the sun': visitors flock to Iceland volcano

REYKJAVIK, Iceland: Despite warnings to stay away from Iceland's latest volcanic eruption near Reykjavik, a group of curious visitors told Agence France-Presse they couldn't resist the lure of lava that is "orange like the sun."

While volcanologists say the eruption remains "low intensity" for now, initial estimates indicate that its flow is significantly more powerful than the two previous eruptions in 2021 and 2022 on the Reykjanes peninsula.
