		</div><p>A long-dormant volcano has flared to life in south-western Iceland, spilling lava in the area’s first volcanic eruption in nearly 800 years.</p>
<p>Initial aerial footage, posted on the Facebook page of the Icelandic Meteorological Office, showed a relatively small eruption as two streams of lava ran in opposite directions down the Fagradals Mountain volcano on the Reykjanes Peninsula.</p>
<p>The Department of Emergency Management said it was not anticipating evacuations because the volcano is in a remote valley about 1.5 miles from the nearest road.</p>
<p>The glow from the lava could be seen from the outskirts of Iceland’s capital, Reykjavik, which is about 20 miles away.</p>
<p>The Fagradals Mountain volcano has been dormant for 6,000 years, and the Reykjanes Peninsula had not seen any volcanic eruptions in 781 years.</p>
<p>But volcanologists were still taken by surprise because the seismic activity had calmed down before the eruption.</p>
