Fogo volcano eruption in 1995 (Cape Verde Islands)

In April 1995 a fissure eruption started at Fogo volcano on the Cape Verde island of Fogo. The center of activity was on the west side of the prominent Pico cone. The eruption caused evacuation (note shelters at the beginning) of some island residents and damage of property and crops. The film was made at a quite early stage of the eruption in April 1995. Activity ended at the end of May.
