At least 62 people, including three children, were killed and nearly 300 injured on Sunday in the most violent eruption of Guatemala's Fuego volcano in over four decades, officials said.
Fuego volcano, whose name means "fire" in English, spewed an 8 km stream of red hot lava and belched a thick plume of black smoke and ash that rained onto the capital and other regions.
The head of Guatemala's National Forensic Sciences Institute late on Monday said 13 of the 62 people confirmed dead had been identified.
Around 2 million people have been affected by the eruption.
