Photos show the Canary Island volcano in the Atlantic, which is becoming 'much more aggressive,' say scientists - Business Insider The Cumbre Vieja volcano, located in La Palma in Spain's Canary Islands, exploded on September 19 and is becoming "much more aggressive," scientists warn.
Authorities have recorded multiple earthquakes, and a new flow of fiery magma as the volcano continues to erupt, blowing more fissures and spewing more lava into the sea, according to AP.
More than 6000 people have had to be evacuated - including 400 tourists. The Spanish government has declared La Palma a disaster zone and has vowed to provide financial support to those affected.
The smoke plumes are concentrated along the Atlantic Ocean and the African continent, according to the EU Earth Observation Programme.
