Lava that overflowed from a crater in southwestern Iceland reached the road of the nearby town of Grindavikurvegur on Sunday and prompted authorities to close a local geothermal resort, local media reported.
The Icelandic Meteorological Office said the lava from the Sundhnukagigar crater had breached defensive walls and forced a preemptive closure of the Blue Lagoon resort before guests arrived, according to the Iceland Monitor website.
