UN CORRIDOIO DI MAGMA
- Secondo un recente monitoraggio è emerso come un corridoio di magma si sia esteso sotto il centro abitato. In particolare, si è formata una faglia lunga circa 15 km e l'eruzione potrebbe accadere in qualsiasi punto. Solamente nella giornata di martedì sono state registrate fino ad 800 scosse

IL RIENTRO NELLE CASE
- Intanto, come riporta l’agenzia Reuters, le autorità islandesi si stanno preparando a costruire muri di difesa intorno a una centrale geotermica per proteggerla dalle possibili colate laviche. Alla popolazione, tra apprensione e paura, sono state concesse poche ore per rientrare nelle abitazioni e portare via i propri beni oltre che per salvare gli animali

LA PROBABILITA' DI ERUZIONE
- La probabilità di un'eruzione, dunque, resta elevata nonostante gli esperti abbiano registrato la diminuzione dell'attività sismica, come sottolineato nelle scorse ore dall'Istituto meteorologico islandese. "Una minore attività sismica tipicamente precede un'eruzione", ha riferito Rikke Pedersen che dirige il Centro Vulcanologico Nordico con sede a Reykjavik

UNA TESTIMONIANZA
- Kristin Maria Birgisdottir, residente a Grindavik, dipendente del comune della città islandese, ha detto proprio alla Reuters che al momento dell'evacuazione aveva solo gli abiti che aveva indossato al lavoro il giorno in cui la città è stata abbandonata. "Mi sto preparando nel caso in cui avrò la possibilità di visitare casa mia e prendere alcune delle mie cose", aveva raccontato nei giorni scorsi la donna che si è trasferita in una casa estiva con la sua famiglia
