Nyiragongo Erupting (16 März 1927 Jahr – 10 Jan 1977 Jahr)
Beschreibung:
Mount Nyiragongo, an active volcano in the Democratic Republic of Congo, had a notable eruption in 1927. Located in the Virunga Mountains, near Lake Kivu, Nyiragongo is known for its large, persistent lava lake. The 1927 eruption saw significant lava flows and volcanic activity that impacted nearby villages and reshaped the area around the volcano. Nyiragongo’s eruptions are especially dangerous due to its unusually fast-moving lava, which can flow at speeds that make evacuation difficult. The volcano has continued to erupt periodically, with major eruptions in more recent years affecting the local population.
