Volcán de Fuego Eruption Prompts Evacuations in Guatemala

The authorities expect that more will need to be evacuated, considering the activity in the volcano.

The 3,763 meter high volcano is one of Central America's most active, and is located only five miles from Guatemala's capital. In 2018, around 200 people perished in an eruption when many villages and buildings were exposed to ash, stone and toxic gases.
