El Rodeo is a town in the Escuintla Department of Guatemala. It is located at an altitude of 2,483 m (8,146 ft) above sea level on the southern slopes of an active volcano called Volcán de Fuego — Spanish for Volcano of Fire.[2]
El Rodeo was in the direct path of the eruption and from most news reports and pictures the town is covered in Volcanic ash.
The town, with a population estimated at 14,125[1] was reported to have been buried by volcanic material following the 2018 Volcán de Fuego eruption on 3 June 2018.[3][4] The town was in the process of evacuation when the eruption happened.[5]
Other nearby towns affected by the volcanic flows include San Miguel Los Lotes and Alotenango.[3][4] At least 62 people were confirmed dead in the disaster area,[6][7] and it is feared that near 2,000 people are missing as the aftermath of the eruption
