A volcano erupted again to the south of Iceland's capital on Tuesday, spewing lava and smoke in a fiery display of orange and red that triggered some evacuations, although air traffic continued as normal.

Tuesday's eruption also caused the evacuation of the Blue Lagoon spa, one of the country's top tourist destinations.

A volcano in southwestern Iceland that has erupted repeatedly for more than a year again belched lava and smoke into the air, just hours after authorities evacuated the few remaining residents of a nearby fishing village.
