Iceland Declares Emergency After Volcanic Eruption

Iceland Declares Emergency , After Volcanic Eruption .

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.

.

The eruption occurred in southwestern Iceland, near the capital city of Reykjavik and the Keflavik International Airport.

According to the Icelandic Meteorological Office, after weeks of anticipation, the long-expected eruption was finally recorded at 10:17 p.m.

Local time.

.

Since peaking shortly after the eruption, the flow of lava has slowed.

.

However, authorities remain vigilant and all evacuated areas continue to be off limits.

.

In November, over 3,400 people living in the small fishing town of Grindavik, less than two miles from the fissure, were evacuated after a series of earthquakes.

.

Mayor Fannar JĂłnasson told the Icelandic public broadcaster RUV that over 100 families from the town will be in urgent need of housing until at least January.

Americans have been advised to avoid the area surrounding the eruption by the U.S. Embassy in Reykjavik.

Trump DESTROYS Reporter for 'Stupid' Question, SLAMS NBC as 'Fake News' for Ignoring White Africans

During an Oval Office meeting with South African President Cyril Ramaphosa, Donald Trump lashed out at NBC’s Peter Alexander over a question about a $400 million private jet gifted by Qatar.

DHS’ New Campaign against IMMIGRATION | ‘Uncle Sam’ Poster asks people to report ‘Foreign Invaders’

The DHS has revived the iconic ‘Uncle Sam’ to urge Americans to report undocumented immigrants, calling them “foreign invaders.” The official poster, backed by the White House, has triggered national outrage over racial profiling and propaganda tactics. Critics say the image recycles war-era fear to stoke anti-immigrant sentiment. With ICE raids in LA and protests planned nationwide, the immigration debate is back in the spotlight—raising questions about democracy, identity, and the line between patriotism and persecution. #UncleSam #DHS #Trump #Immigration #ICE #ForeignInvaders #RacialProfiling #Propaganda #USPolitics #ImmigrantRights #NationalOutrage #WhiteHouse #BreakingNews #AntiICE #CivilRights #Protests #ReportImmigrants #PosterControversy #AmericanValues #USIdentity #DemocracyInCrisis Also Read POTUS Launches $5 Million 'Trump Card' Visa Programme Offering Path To US Citizenship :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-launches-5-million-trump-card-visa-programme-offering-path-to-us-citizenship-4179053.html?ref=DMDesc US Lauds 'Phenomenal Partner' Pakistan In 'Combating Terrorism', Hosts COAS Asim Munir; 'Setback' Says Oppn :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/us-lauds-phenomenal-partner-pakistan-in-combating-terrorism-hosts-coas-asim-munir-setback-sa-4179017.html?ref=DMDesc US Reduces Presence Of Staffers Not Deemed Essential In Middle East As Tensions Rise :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/us-reduces-presence-of-staffers-not-deemed-essential-in-middle-east-as-tensions-rise-4178953.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.318~ED.103~GR.125~

Former Hamas Hostages’ Letter to Trump and Netanyahu REVEALED | Trump Pressed After Edan’s Release

Survivors of Hamas captivity are calling on Prime Minister Netanyahu, President Trump, and envoy Steve Witkoff to act urgently following Edan Alexander's release. In a passionate letter signed by 65 former hostages, they urged leaders not to waste the moment and to halt military action if it means saving the remaining captives. While Trump negotiates new Middle East deals, pressure mounts to prioritize the hostages. With several Americans still held or declared dead, the plea emphasizes cross-border urgency. Netanyahu’s office has not responded to the emotional appeal for a comprehensive deal. #Hamas #HostageCrisis #Israel #Trump #Netanyahu #EdanAlexander #MiddleEastPeace #FreeTheHostages #Gaza #USPolitics #IsraelHamasWar #TrumpDeals #SteveWitkoff #BreakingNews #MiddleEastCrisis #AmericanHostages #AbrahamAccords #SyriaIsrael #WarNegotiations #GlobalAppeal Also Read Hamas Releases US-Israeli Hostage Edan Alexander Ahead of Trump’s Middle East Visit :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/hamas-releases-us-israeli-hostage-edan-alexander-ahead-of-trump-s-middle-east-visit-4151571.html?ref=DMDesc Pakistan Launches Hamas-Style Missile Attack on Jammu; All Intercepted By Indian Air Defence :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/pakistan-launches-hamas-style-missile-attack-on-jammu-all-intercepted-by-indian-air-defence-4147919.html?ref=DMDesc Netanyahu Warns Hamas As Israel Strikes Gaza Amid Truce Collapse: 'Negotiations Only Under Fire' :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/netanyahu-warns-hamas-as-israel-strikes-gaza-amid-truce-collapse-negotiations-only-under-fire-4098633.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.336~ED.346~

Trump Signs Orders Scrapping Biden-Era Rules, Targets Appliance And Consumer Product Regulations

President Donald Trump has signed a series of executive orders repealing key Biden-era energy regulations. These include controversial standards imposed on gas water heaters, household appliances, commercial refrigerators, and walk-in freezers. Backed by Republican lawmakers, the move is framed as a victory for American households and small businesses. Trump stated the repeals will reduce unnecessary burdens, lower energy costs, and return decision-making power to consumers. The orders aim to undo what Trump called last-minute regulations under Biden that hurt everyday Americans and stifled economic freedom in the name of overregulation. #Trump2025 #TrumpOrders #BidenEraRepeal #EnergyRegulations #ApplianceStandards #GasWaterHeaters #FreeMarket #TrumpRepeals #HouseholdAppliances #RegulationRollback #TrumpExecutiveOrder #BidenRulesScrapped #WalkInCoolers #CommercialFreezers #EnergyFreedom #TrumpVsBiden #HomeownerRights #RegulatoryReform #TrumpWhiteHouse #TrumpPolicies Also Read Trump Reacts to Indian Missile Strikes: 'It’s a Shame,' Calls for Swift Resolution :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-reacts-to-indian-missile-strikes-it-s-a-shame-calls-for-swift-resolution-4145511.html?ref=DMDesc Trump and Carney Face Off in Oval Office Over Trade War and Tariffs :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-carney-faceoff-oval-office-trade-war-011-4145443.html?ref=DMDesc What Donald Trump’s 100% Tariff On Foreign Films Could Mean For Indian Entertainment Industry | Explained :: https://www.oneindia.com/business/what-donald-trump-s-100-tariff-on-foreign-films-could-mean-for-indian-entertainment-industry-expl-4144927.html?ref=DMDesc
