Volcanic Eruption Triggers Mass Evacuations Near Antigua
Guatemala's Volcan del Fuego erupted in powerful blasts sending ash nearly two miles high and lava flows down its slopes. Evacuations affected more than 33,000 people across 17 villages around the volcano, while air travel and regional monitoring continued. Authorities warned ash drift could reach 50 miles south, with shelters set up and victim care underway.
