Watch: Iceland volcano spews lava and smoke after erupting

Tourists and residents of a town in south-west Iceland have been evacuated after a volcanic eruption. The volcano is close to the fishing town of Grindavik and the famous Blue Lagoon spa, which is a popular attraction. A small number of people refused to evacuate the town, local media reported. The volcano has been spewing lava and smoke in a fiery display of orange and red since Tuesday morning, creating a huge crack in the ground which has grown to 1.2km (0.75 miles) long.
