Umhlaba omtsha ubumbene nonxweme lweSiqithi Esikhulu saseHawaii ukusuka kwintaba enyibilikileyo yokuqhuma kweVolue yaseKilauea.

I-US Geological Survey (i-USGS) ifumanise ukwenziwa kwesiqithi seemitha ezimbalwa ukusuka kwilizwekazi ngexesha lokuhamba ngenqwelomoya ngoJulayi 13. Iarhente yalinganisa ububanzi bayo kwenye indawo phakathi kwe-20 kunye ne-30 yeenyawo, kodwa yalumkisa abantu ukuba bangasondeli kakhulu - esi siqithi nangoku scalding magma.

Kodwa isiqithi asizange sihlale ixesha elide. NgeCawa, i-USGS inike ingxelo yokuba ngoku idityaniswe neyona ndawo iphambili yokuhamba phambili ngumtya welava. Ukuba isiqithi siyaqhubeka sikhula, kunokuba njalo ngokulula ihlanjwe ngamaza ePacific nje ukuba udaka lwalava lume.

I-arhente ikholelwa ukuba ubunzima bunokuba sisifo sangaphantsi kolwandle. Eli gama lisetyenziselwa xa umhlaba ukhula phantsi kwamanzi kwaye ekugqibeleni uvele ngaphezulu kwamaza. Izazinzulu zikholelwa ukuba zenziwe kukungqengqa okutsha okungena ngoku elwandle.

Ababhenkethi banokubona udaka lwentaba-mlilo luvela kwihelikopta okanye kwizikhephe ezijikeleze isiza.

I-Kilauea ikhuphe udaka ngaphezulu kweenyanga ezimbini. Ngelo xesha, ichithe phantse i-700 yamakhaya kwaye yabangela ukonzakala. NgoMvulo, Abantu abangama-23 benzakala xa ibhombu yodaka evela eKilauea yangena ngophahla lwesikhephe sokubona indawo.
