PYROCLASTIC flows, described by volcanologist Dr Richard Robertson as moving masses of destruction, contained in volcanic ash, are just one of the threats facing people who ignored the mandatory evacuation order.

St Vincent and the Grenadines Prime Minister Ralph Gonsalves on Sunday said no fatalities attributed to the eruptions have been recorded.
