We present the HST WFC3/F275W UV imaging observations of A2218-Flanking, a lensed compact dwarf galaxy at redshift z~2.5. The stellar mass of A2218-Flanking is log(M_*/M_☉)=9.14_–0.04^+0.07 and SFR is 12.5_–7.4^+3.8M_☉ yr^–1 after correcting the magnification. This galaxy has a young galaxy age of 127 Myr and a compact galaxy size of r_1/2=2.4 kpc. The HST UV imaging observations cover the rest-frame Lyman continuum (LyC) emission (∼800 A) from A2218-Flanking. We firmly detect (14σ) the LyC emission in A2218-Flanking in the F275W image. Together with the HST F606W images, we find that the absolute escape fraction of LyC is f_abs,esc 28 % –57 % based on the flux density ratio between 1700 and 800 A (f₁₇₀₀/f₈₀₀). The morphology of the LyC emission in the F275W images is extended and follows the morphology of the UV continuum morphology in the F606W images, suggesting that the f₈₀₀ is not from foreground contaminants. We find that the region with a high star formation rate surface density has a lower f₁₇₀₀/f₈₀₀ (higher f₈₀₀/f₁₇₀₀) ratio than the diffused regions, suggesting that LyC photons are more likely to escape from the region with the intensive star-forming process. We compare the properties of galaxies with and without LyC detections and find that LyC photons are easier to escape in low-mass galaxies.
