Europe solar eclipse live: millions flock to viewing spots in Spain, UK and Iceland

Europe prepares for a solar eclipse, with millions flocking to viewing spots in Spain, the United Kingdom, and Iceland. Mount Etna, the world's most active volcano, has been displaying a spectacular show, emitting incandescent magma and streams of lava down its slopes.
