Ash clouds from two active volcanoes in Guatemala prompted local air travel warnings yesterday.
The country’s National Institute of Seismology, Vulcanology, Meteorology and Hydrology warned of columns of ash from the Fuego volcano in the south of the country rising up to 4,500m above sea level.
The Santa Maria volcano in southwestern Santiaguito ejected ash about 500m above the crater, the institute said.
The organisation cautioned air craft from flying in the vicinity of the ash-spewing volcanoes.
Fuego and Santa Maria are two of several active volcanoes in the country.
Activity from the Fuego volcano in 2012 prompted authorities to evacuate thousands of people from its slopes.
