In Iceland, there was another volcano eruption.

It's the third time since December.

The volcano eruption was near Grindavik town.

Nobody was there.

The people left the town at the first eruption.

Then, hot lava hit houses.

This time, it hit a water pipe.

Fannar Jonasson is the mayor of Grindavik.

Iceland has 30 active volcanoes.

These can be dangerous.

This volcano is a 'fissure volcano'.

It means the lava comes down one tunnel.

It isn't like the volcano eruption in 2010.

Then, the sky turned grey.

Thousands of aeroplanes had to stop flying.

Jack's a visitor from Canada.

The eruption was exciting for him.

Some local people felt relieved.

Like 3,800 others, Solny Palsdottir had to leave.

But they waited a long time for this event.

Experts are worried.

This might be the start of a dangerous time for volcanoes.

People from Grindavik are worried too.

They might never get home.
