Sorry - this page has been removed. Guatemala volcano eruption forces evacuations
(4 months later)
This could be because it launched early, our rights have expired, there was a legal issue, or for another reason. Guatemala’s Fuego volcano belched black ash into the sky on Saturday, causing the government to evacuate 100 nearby residents and forcing the closure of the capital’s international airport, President Otto Perez told reporters.
The volcano, about 25 miles south-west of the capital, forced the cancellation of several flights as Guatemala’s main airport shut down and workers sought to clear the runways of ash.
For further information, please contact: Officials said the amount of falling ash was moderate but urged nearby residents to use masks or wet cloth to guard against breathing dangerous contaminants.
The airport was expected to reopen by early Sunday morning.
