After a volcano on the Reykjanes Peninsula in Iceland began to erupt on the 18th, it has gradually subsided in recent days. About 4,000 evacuated residents in the town of Grindavik near the volcano were allowed to "go home and see" on the 21st, but they still need to remain vigilant to reactivate the fire hill activity.
