🇬🇹 Guatemala: Santiaguito Volcano Activity Continues as of April 21

🌋 According to VolcanoDiscovery, on the morning of April 21, the volcano Santiaguito Volcano continues its ongoing explosive-extrusive activity. Regular weak to moderate eruptions are producing ash plumes reaching up to 4.3 km above the summit

🌫️ The volcano remains in an active phase, with viscous magma rising through the conduit and fragmenting into dense gray ash clouds.

⚠️ Despite the obvious danger, not everyone respects safety restrictions. On April 19, surveillance footage captured a group of tourists approaching the active crater area too closely during eruptive activity. A sudden explosion of ash and volcanic material forced them to quickly retreat while debris continued to fall around them.

🔥 Experts remind that even brief proximity to an active volcano can be extremely dangerous due to sudden explosive eruptions.
