危地马拉Fuego火山于周一早晨开始喷发,引发大规模应急疏散行动[1]。当局已将约1700人从火山斜坡周边至少18个社区撤离至安全地带[1]。周二早间,火山喷出高约300米(984英尺)的熔岩[1]。此次喷发触发红色警报、启动疏散、关闭高速公路并导致三个省份学校停课[1]。截至目前,尚未报告人员伤亡或财产损失[1]。
尽管火山活动至周三已逐渐减弱,但风险仍然存在[1]。当局警告称,来自东边热带波系的降雨可能引发致命的火山泥流,提醒民众保持谨慎[1]。位于Escuintla、Chimaltenango和Sacatepéquez省之间的Fuego火山距危地马拉首都53公里[1]。2018年6月3日的火山喷发造成数百人死亡、整个社区被摧毁,影响范围涉及多达170万人[1]。
Guatemala's Fuego volcano began erupting early Monday morning, prompting authorities to evacuate approximately 1,700 people from at least 18 communities on its slopes [1]. By Wednesday, volcanic activity had begun to decrease, though hazards persist in the region [1].
The eruption triggered a red alert status, resulting in highway closures and school suspensions across three provinces [1]. Early Tuesday morning, the volcano expelled lava fountains reaching approximately 300 meters in height [1]. To date, no deaths or property damage have been reported [1]. However, authorities have cautioned residents about the potential danger posed by rainfall from tropical systems approaching from the east, which could spawn deadly volcanic mudflows [1].
The Fuego volcano, situated between Escuintla, Chimaltenango, and Sacatepéquez provinces approximately 53 kilometers from Guatemala's capital, has a history of destructive activity [1]. A major eruption on June 3, 2018, killed hundreds of people, destroyed entire communities, and affected up to 1.7 million individuals [1].
