Episode Details

Guatemala braces for disaster as Volcán de Fuego erupts again, blasting ash plumes and lava into the sky—its latest outburst triggering a nationwide orange alert and forcing evacuations from nearby villages. Known for its relentless activity, this “volcano of fire” has erupted every 15-20 minutes in recent days, prompting authorities to issue their second-highest emergency warning. With nine major eruptions since 2015—including one that displaced 1,200 people in 2023—the volcano’s fury is no stranger to the region. Though the tourist hub of Antigua escaped direct threat this time, the country’s position on the Ring of Fire keeps residents and officials on high alert.
