Manda Hararo

Manda Hararo is a group of basaltic shield volcanoes in the Afar region of Ethiopia that last erupted in 2009. The group is large, spreading over 105 square kilometres (41 sq mi), and located within the active Manda Hararo rift. At its northern end is a small cluster. South of this volcano is the Gumatmali-Gablaytu fissure system, an area dominated by fissure-fed lava flows.
