Lava at a volcano near Iceland’s capital Reykjavik burst through the surface on Saturday (March 20) after initially erupting the previous day for the first time in 800 years.

Drone footage filmed on Saturday shows explosive activity and lava flows at Fagradalsfjall. Further closeup footage shows steam and the lava bursting from the ground.

A small smattering of onlookers can be seen observing the erupting volcano.

Fagradalsfjall volcano erupted after thousands of small earthquakes in the area in recent weeks.

In 2010, the eruption of another volcano, Eyjafjallajokull, brought air traffic to a complete halt across Europe. But the eruption at Fagradalsfjall has not spewed out much ash as yet.
