Watch: Molten lava erupts from Hawaii's Kilauea volcano

Molten lava sprayed out dramatically from the west and south craters of Hawaii's Kilauea volcano after erupting on Thursday.

United States Geological Survey (USGS) cameras showed flows of lava converging together and carving through the landscape.

According to the USGS website, Kilauea is "one of the world's most active volcanoes" and has been erupting periodically since 23 December 2024.
