The Kilauea volcano in the US state of Hawaii has exploded a few hours after an earthquake that hit at 5 am on May 3. The erupted Kilauea volcano continues to spew lava from that day on.

More than Close to 2,000 people were evacuated from the area due to lava, stone and toxic gas spewing from the Kilauea volcano.

It was reported that the ash plume flows from the volcano reached up to 61 meters, spread over tens of thousands of square meters.

The cracks formed in the volcano are also expressed that producing molten rock, poisonous gas, and steam.

Hawaii's Civil Defense Agency alerted those who use of motorized marine vehicles, go to beaches in the region, due to lava flows down to the ocean, and produce toxic gas clouds called "laze".

Two thousand more people were evacuated from the region due to the poisonous sulfur dioxide gas goes to the air in the last two days.

It is expressed that the lava is composed of steam, hydrochloric acid, smoke, and glass particles, and this happens when it reaches to the ocean water and the temperature rise over a thousand degrees.

The civil defense administration said the volcano's smoke intensity has tripled since the weekend, while Michael Poland, a scientist at the US Geological Research Center, said it would be difficult to tell how long it would last and that the volcano's activity could last for weeks or even months.

Eruptions took place since 1983 in Kilauea Volcano, in which one of the most active volcanoes in the world.
