Hawaii’s Kilauea, one of the world’s most active volcanoes, has erupted for the 40th time since 2024, sending lava fountains soaring up to 200 metres into the air. Dramatic footage shows molten lava bursting from vents and flowing across the crater floor inside Hawaii Volcanoes National Park. Authorities say the eruption remains confined to the Halemaʻumaʻu crater and poses no immediate threat to nearby communities. The repeated eruptions highlight Kilauea’s volatile nature as scientists continue to closely monitor the activity.
