La Palma is home to some 85,000 people and is a popular tourist destination in the Spanish Canary Islands, off the northeast coast of Africa.
Cumbre Vieja’s eruption has been accompanied by sky-high smokestacks, toxic gases, intense ashfall and frequent earthquakes.
The volcano has also been launching lava bombs, which are masses of molten rock that solidify in the air before hitting the ground.
According to a Wednesday report by the volcanologists at Volcano Discovery, La Palma’s earthquakes have been picking up in intensity over the last 24 hours.
