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.

Nighttime images of lava spewing from the Cumbre Vieja volcano on Spain's La Palma island, two weeks after the beginning of its first eruption in 50 years. At least 870 buildings of all types have been completely destroyed and 6,000 people have been evacuated. IMAGES
The Cumbre Vieja volcano, on the Spanish Canary island of La Palma, spews lava and smoke. The eruption has left at least 870 buildings of all types completely destroyed and prompted the evacuation of around 6,000 people. IMAGES
Aerial images show lava near the Icelandic fishing town of Grindavik as volcanic activity eases following an eruption which began early Sunday. Grindavik's 4,000 residents had been evacuated in November as a precaution. Shortly after a December 18 eruption, they were allowed to return for brief periods. They were authorised to regain their homes permanently on December 23 but only a few dozen chose to do so. IMAGES
Lava continues to spew out of a volcanic fissure in Fagradalsfjall, Iceland, around 40 kilometres from the capital Reykjavik, a week after the beginning of the eruption. IMAGES
The eruption is around 40 kilometres (25 miles) from Reykjavik, near the site of the Mount Fagradalsfjall volcano in southwestern Iceland that erupted for six months in March-September 2021, mesmerising tourists and spectators who flocked to the scene. IMAGES
