Hundreds of people have been forced to flee their homes after a volcano erupted in South America.
The 12,300ft Volcán de Fuego - which means Volcano of Fire - in Guatemala, sparked a red alert.
Strong eruptions and ash columns could lead to avalanches, the National Coordinator for Disaster Reduction (Conred) has warned.
Dramatic footage taken of the volcano, in the south of the country, 10 miles west of capital Antigua, shows it spewing lava.
The volcano is renowned for being constantly active, but at a low level.
