Nicaragua: 3,000 people are being evacuated as San Cristóbal volcano explodes
San Cristobal, Nicaragua’s highest volcano, exploded at least 3 times, expelling volcanic gases, ash and tephra about 1,500 meters into the air and forcing evacuations of thousands of people in the rural northwestern department of Chinandega.
- Authorities say up to 20,000 people may have to be evacuated.
- The 1,745-m volcano sits 140km northwest of the capital, Managua.
- The explosions may have been primed by the Magnitude 7.6 earthquake which struck Costa Rica on September 5, 2012.
