The La Palma Volcano Continues To Erupt - Spain

The La Palma Volcano Continues To Erupt - Spain

An eruptive mouth expels lava and pyroclasts in the Cabeza de Vaca area, on September 21, 2021, in La Palma, Santa Cruz de Tenerife, Canary Islands, (Spain). The volcanic eruption that began on Sunday at 3:00 p.m. in the Cabeza de Vaca area (La Palma), with temperatures still above 1000 ºC, is in a more explosive phase of its eruption and has already caused damage of at least 200 houses and 154 hectares. At the moment, all the attention is on the sea, since although according to experts the arrival of the lava will not be imminent, when it happens and comes into contact with the water, clouds of chlorine and other toxic gases will form that could cause a strong chemical reaction. Due to the situation on La Palma, the Emergency Services have evicted at least 6,000 residents from nearby areas. Photo by Kike Rincón/Europa Press/ContactoPhoto/ABACAPRESS.COM
