St Vincent running out of clean water after series of volcanic eruptions

14 Apr 2021

The World Bank has today pledged $20 million in aid to the government of St Vincent and the Grenadines, where at least 7,000 people have been forced to flee their homes following a series of volcanic eruptions, the latest just hours ago.

Authorities there say the island of St Vincent is now running out of clean water. Kenton Chance has been to Georgetown inside the red zone, an area close to the volcano that’s been evacuated.
