Lava exploded from La Palma's volcano on Monday as night fell on the Spanish island after a brief lull, while hundreds of people in coastal villages hunkered down in anticipation of lava emitted in previous days reaching the sea and releasing toxic gas.

Spurts of vivid red lava emerged from the Cumbre Vieja volcano in the early evening and snaked down the dark mountainside towards evacuated buildings after a period of several hours without explosions.

No fatalities or serious injuries have been reported, but about 15% of the island's banana crop could be at risk, jeopardizing thousands of jobs.
