Another volcanic eruption in Iceland possible - this time it's Katla 9. júlí 2011 10:13 The eruption in the volcano caused a flood that wiped out the bridge across the Múlahvísl river. Þórir N.K. A small eruption seems to be under way in the Katla volcano in the Mýrdalsjökull glacier in Iceland. A glacial flood has gone over the Ringroad, the main higway around Iceland and torn away a 128 metre long bridge over Múlahvísl river. Tourists in the area are being evacuated, from Álftaver and the Þakgil campsite. Experts say that the eruption is quite small but a warning has been issued to people in the area to stay away from the Múlahvísl river as the sulphurate gas from the volcano could present a danger. This is the fourth volcanic eruption in Iceland in the last 16 months and air traffic all over Europe was severely disrupted when Eyjafjallajökull started spewing vocanic ash into the sky in april last year. Katla, which is close to Eyjafjallajökull, last erupted in 1918.
