Nyamuragira (DRCongo): (13 Nov) The effusive eruption at the volcano continues at elevated levels.
The latest Sentinel-2 thermal imagery acquisition from 12 November revealed that the lava from the active lava lake overflowed the northern caldera rim and continues to spill out along the northwestern flank, currently about 6,5 km long.
Whether the lava will ooze out towards the western flank, as previous lava flow eruptions indicate, is unclear yet and we need to wait for upcoming satellite updates.
