2,200 earthquakes in Iceland in 24 hours
Almost 2,200 earthquakes were recorded in the area around Iceland's capital Reykjavik in the past 24 hours. The country's weather office warned that it is a signal that a volcanic eruption could be imminent.
The Icelandic Meteorological Office (IMO) said the tremors began around 4 pm beneath Mount Fagradalsfjall. The mountain sits atop a volcanic system where two eruptions have occurred in the past two years on the Reykjanes Peninsula- Iceland's southwestern tip.
