Mount Nyiragongo, Democratic Republic of Congo

Mount Nyiragongo, one of the world's most active volcanoes, erupted in May 2021. The eruption caused rivers of lava to flow towards the nearby city of Goma, resulting in the displacement of thousands of people and the destruction of homes.

Nyiragongo's lava is known for its low viscosity, allowing it to flow rapidly, making it particularly dangerous.
