ARGuatemala authorities issued an orange alert ('danger') after a strong eruption of the Fuego volcano near the capital, which expelled lava flows and large gas and ash columns. The volcanic crater, located 35 kilometers southwest of Guatemala City, is considered the most active volcano in Central America. The eruption intensified during the night and early morning, with ash plumes reaching up to 6,000 meters and lava flows descending the slopes. The National Coordinator for Disaster Risk Reduction (Conred) initiated evacuations of two nearby communities and provided safety recommendations, including avoiding danger zones and preparing emergency kits. The Institute of Seismology, Volcanology, Meteorology, and Hydrology (Insivumeh) confirmed ongoing intense activity, with continuous emissions of gas, ash, and pyroclastic flows. Authorities maintained constant monitoring and closed part of National Route 14 due to falling debris. The Fuego volcano, known for frequent eruptions, had been active since December and reached a 3,000-meter ash column before this event.
