Streams of lava flowed from a new opening on the Cumbre Vieja volcano on Monday, threatening more homes in the north-eastern part of La Palma island as the eruption entered its 10th week.
The Canary Islands Volcanological Institute (INVOLCAN) said one new lava vent opened overnight on the volcano, as huge clouds of smoke billowed into the sky.
As of Saturday, the lava stream had engulfed 1,1151 hectares of land, according to La Palma local authorities, and the eruption had damaged or destroyed nearly 2,700 buildings, forcing the evacuation of thousands from their homes on the island.
