Original caption
In Guatemala, hundreds of people are being evacuated from villages near the Fuego volcano after it erupted on Monday. Video from the site — located 20 miles or so from the country's capital — shows a fountain of lava up to 1,000 feet high, and ash reportedly spewing nearly four miles into the air. Authorities issued a nationwide "orange alert" — one level below its most serious emergency — and closed a major highway nearby. The volcano is part of the Pacific Ring of Fire and is one of Guatemala's most active. #guatemala #volcano #fuego #naturaldisaster #volcaniceruption #lava #pacificringoffire #pbs #pbsnews #pbsnewshour #news
