    CHILE: Over 3,500 people were forced to evacuate in the Caulle Cordon region on Saturday after a volcano erupted.

    Officials said the eruption was so violent that a rift more than six miles long and three miles wide had been torn in the earth’s crust.

    Smoke and ash were carried as far afield as Bariloche in Argentina.

    No-one was reported injured.
