Iceland
has issued a red alert to the aviation industry for the Bardarbunga
volcano, meaning significant ash emissions are likely.
On Wednesday, authorities evacuated an area close to the volcano over fears it could erupt.
The move came after geologists said about 300 earthquakes had been detected in the area since midnight on Tuesday.
Iceland's Eyjafjallajokull volcano erupted in 2010, producing an ash cloud that severely disrupted air travel.
