An explosive eruption rocked La Soufriere volcano on the eastern Caribbean island of St. Vincent on Friday following mandatory evacuation orders from the local government.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

Emergency management officials said the ash column was about 20,000 feet (6 kilometers) high and that the ash was headed east into the Atlantic Ocean.<\/p>\n

\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

However, heavy ashfall also was reported in communities around the volcano, said Erouscilla Joseph, director of the University of the West Indies Seismic Center.<\/p>

\u201cMore explosions could occur,\u201d she said, adding that it was impossible to predict whether any potential upcoming explosions would be bigger or smaller than the first one.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

There were no immediate reports of casualties.<\/p>\n

\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

The volcano last erupted in 1979, and a previous eruption in 1902 killed some 1,600 people.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

The new eruption followed mandatory evacuation orders issued Thursday for people who live near the volcano. Officials planned to place them aboard cruise ships, send them to nearby islands or take them to shelters elsewhere in St. Vincent that are outside the danger zone.<\/p>\n

Roughly 16,000 people live in the red zone and will need to be evacuated, Joseph, said.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

The pandemic could hamper evacuation efforts.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

Prime Minister Ralph Gonsalves said in a press conference that people have to be vaccinated if they go aboard a cruise ship or are granted temporary refuge in another island. He said two Royal Caribbean cruise ships are expected to arrive by Friday and a third one in the coming days, as well as two Carnival cruise ships by Friday. Islands that have said they would accept evacuees include St. Lucia, Grenada, Barbados and Antigua.<\/p>\n

\u201cNot everything is going to go perfect, but if we all cooperate \u2026 we will come through this stronger than ever,\u201d Gonsalves said.<\/p>\n

He noted that he was talking to Caribbean governments to accept people\u2019s ID cards if they don\u2019t have a passport.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is an emergency situation, and everybody understands that,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Gonsalves added that he highly recommends those who opt to go to a shelter in St. Vincent and the Grenadines, an island chain of more than 100,000 people, be vaccinated.<\/p>\n

Emergency management teams have been going out to communities in the red zone and providing transportation to safer locations, including prearranged shelters, according to Joseph.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey know who doesn\u2019t have transportation because all of this has been canvassed before,\u201d she said, adding that those who board the cruise ship would not be taken elsewhere but would remain there for an unspecified period of time.ADVERTISEMENT<\/p>\n

By late Thursday evening, shelters were filling up as a string of car lights making their way to safer ground twinkled through the darkened mountains.<\/p>\n

John Renton, a school principal who was in charge of one shelter, said in a phone interview that they had plenty of masks and other personal protective equipment but needed more cots. While talking, he was interrupted by a phone call from a government official asking about the state of things. \u201cWe\u2019re over capacity,\u201d he responded, noting that the shelter could hold 75 people and was already filled up.<\/p>\n

Government officials tweeted that the dome of the volcano located on the island\u2019s northern region could be seen glowing by nightfall. The alert issued Wednesday follows days of seismic activity around La Soufriere.<\/p>\n

Gonsalves urged people to remain calm and orderly.<\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t want you panicked,\u201d he said. \u201cThat is the worst thing to do.\u201d<\/p>\n

Scientists alerted the government about a possible eruption after noting a type of seismic activity at 3 a.m. on Thursday that indicated \u201cmagma was on the move close to the surface,\u201d Joseph said.<\/p>\n

\u201cThings are escalating pretty quickly,\u201d she said of the volcanic activity, adding that it was impossible to provide an exact forecast of what might happen in the next hours or days.<\/p>\n

A team from the seismic center arrived in St. Vincent in late December after the volcano had an effusive eruption. They have been analyzing the formation of a new volcanic dome, changes to its crater lake, seismic activity and gas emissions, among other things.<\/p>\n

The eastern Caribbean is home to other active volcanoes. Seventeen of the region\u2019s 19 live volcanoes are located on 11 islands, with the remaining two underwater near the island of Grenada, including one called Kick \u2018Em Jenny that has been active in recent years.<\/p>\n

The region\u2019s most active volcano in recent years has been Soufriere Hills in Montserrat, which has erupted continuously since 1995, destroying the capital of Plymouth and killing at least 19 people in 1997.<\/p>\n
