Canary Islands volcano increasingly aggressive as Spain's leader announces emergency funds
CNN
The Cumbre Vieja volcano on the Spanish island of La Palma is now erupting even more aggressively after weeks of gushing lava, Spain's Instituto Geográfico Nacional (IGN) said Sunday.
The volcano's activity "continues to be intense" and a new crater was discovered Saturday, the Canary Islands government and IGN said in a joint statement.
"It doesn't look like it's close to ending yet, because of the millions of cubic meters of lava that the volcano is throwing out," said Canary Islands President Ángel Víctor Torres at a press conference Sunday.
