💥🌋 A huge fireball lit up the sky after a mud volcano erupted in San Juan de Urabá, Colombia, last night. Flames shot high into the air, with videos showing what some described as a “nuclear-like” blast. Several cattle were killed and vegetation caught fire, but so far no human casualties have been reported. Four homes were evacuated as a precaution, and the road between San Juan de Urabá and San Juancito was closed after cracks appeared.
