Fountains of lava spewing 200ft HIGH and bombs the size of fridges: Several fissures turn active across Hawaii as evacuated residents are urged NOT to try and return home

Hawaii’s Kilauea volcano is violently spewing lava up to 200 feet in the air and firing out lava bombs the size of refrigerators in apocalyptic scenes with six of 22 fissures active on Friday.

The latest in more than two weeks of eruptions has sent fresher, hotter lava speeding towards an isolated residential area, and officials are using helicopters to see if there is anyone still there that needs assistance, Hawaii News Now reported.

Residents who have already evacuated the affected area have been told not to try and return home, and emergency services and the national guard are being sent to secure the area and stop people re-entering.
