Highlights: New eruption in Iceland, state of emergency declared - News. Further south than the one on December 18 southwest of the Icelandic capital Rejkyavik. At the moment it seems that a crack has opened in Sundhnúk, north of Grindavík, around 7.7 this morning and that it is already getting longer. Sundnúkur is located on a watershed, so it is unclear where the lava can flow. The Icelandic newspaper MorgunblaÐiÐ reports that the eruption resumed on the Reykjaness Peninsula.
