New vent emerged: volcano on La Palma continues to spew lava
Yes, the volcano continues to spew lava and ash. On the Canary Island of La Palma the tenth week begins, in which the Cumbre Vieja colors the sky over the crater red. According to the volcanic institute of the archipelago, a new chimney had recently opened, from which huge clouds of smoke rose even on Monday night. The airport was only able to resume operations on Sunday. It had previously been closed for cleaning. Again and again a layer of ash covers the area. The lava flow has now destroyed around 2,700 buildings and buried more than 1,100 hectares of land and vegetation. Last week, the authorities ordered a new curfew out of concern about harmful gases escaping.
