Canaries volcano lava reaches sea, raising toxic gas fears

Description

Aerial views of the lava from an erupting volcano in the Canary Islands as it reaches the ocean. The Spanish archipelago had earlier declared an exclusion zone of two nautical miles around the location the lava was expected to enter the Atlantic and asked residents to stay at home. The Cumbre Vieja volcano, which straddles a southern ridge in La Palma, an island with 85,000 inhabitants, erupted on September 19, spewing out rivers of lava that have slowly crept towards the sea.

  • Experts measure toxic gas levels from Canary volcano lava hitting ocean

    Experts from the Spanish Military Emergency Unit (UME) measure the toxicity of the gases emitted when lava meets the sea. The river of glowing lava from the Cumbre Vieja volcano that erupted ten days ago on the island of La Palma in the Spanish Canary Islands is still flowing into the Atlantic Ocean at midday, but the wind is pushing the toxic gases out to sea, avoiding, at least for the time being, the local population.
