- I will add it to the description if something new happens and make a new video later on because it's just so shaky situation here in Iceland. The video explains it but here are the links I mentioned.
Update February 27th 14:30 GMT - I'm translating this statement from the Cicil Defence Agency. Link to source:

Its time to call for the craftsmen:
It is important that people take good care of their homes and workplaces, fasten cabinets both upstairs and downstairs and do not store heavy items on shelves. This is what Víðir Reynisson, chief police officer at the civil defense, says. The greatest danger of the earthquake in Reykjanes is not a possible eruption but that objects fall on people in the earthquakes and injure them.
"We are very serious about people looking at their surroundings," says Víðir. It's not enough to take down large statues or paintings and plan to hang them up again when the tremors have finished, as he has seen on social media.
"It does not work that way. Although there earthquakes tremours going on now and there is a greater chance of large earthquakes, large earthquakes can occur without warning so people have to think about homes and workplaces based on that. Now people need to call in craftsmen to the workplace and have these things reviewed. "
Danger levels are in force in Reykjanes, the capital area and in Árnessýsla due to seismic activity on the Reykjanes peninsula, where thousands of earthquakes have occurred in recent days, the largest 5.7 on Wednesday. Víðir says the message therefore applies to all those who live in the danger area, and in fact more. "People all over the country who live in earthquake zones must always be thinking about this."
No evidence of magma intrusion
The civil defense met at noon with scientists from the University of Iceland, the Meteorological Office and representatives of municipalities in the southwest corner, as well as representatives from the electricity and telecommunications sector, where the most likely scenarios were reviewed. "It was a good meeting and a lot of information, as there were close to 130 people who came to it in one way or another," says Víðir.
He says the scenarios due to the seismic activity remain unchanged. On the one hand, the earthquakes continue measuring over five and objects can collapse from shelves or move around and cause injuries. However, there might be an even larger earthquake in the east with more impact on buildings and interior fittings. However, it is not considered likely that houses will collapse.
The response to an eruption was not specifically reviewed at the meeting, as there is no evidence of magma intrusions. However, scientists continue to review the situation. Updated response plans and evacuation plans for urban areas in Reykjanes are available.
so this is the currant staus here in Iceland and I will update this if something new happens but here are the links I mentioned in the video:
