Headline: Iceland Declares Emergency After Volcanic Eruption
Caption: On the night of December 18, a volcanic eruption occurred in Iceland, causing a two-and-a-half-mile fissure that had lava flowing toward nearby towns. NBC reports that the powerful eruption threw molten rock 300 feet into the air. As lava spewed across the Reykjanes Peninsula, a state of emergency was declared and tourist locations were closed.
