Iceland volcano: Barðarbunga eruption sparks red travel alert

23 August 2014 Last updated at 18:08 BST

Iceland has issued a red alert to the aviation industry for the Bardarbunga volcano, meaning significant ash emissions are likely.

The Icelandic Met Office has warned that a small eruption under an ice cap has begun at Bardarbunga.

The air space over the site has been closed, but all Icelandic airports currently remain open, authorities say.

Geophysicist Dr Ian Stimpson told the BBC that so far it looked unlikely to cause the disruption to air travel that Iceland's Eyjafjallajokull volcano caused in 2010, but melting ice could trigger bigger eruptions.
