Live: Spanish volcano gets ’intense’ as new fissures erupt

Live from La Palma in Spain’s Canary Islands as rivers of lava continue to flow toward the sea. On October 1, the #volcano blew open two more fissures on its cone that belched forth lava, with authorities reporting “intense“ activity in the area and scientists recording several earthquakes overnight. The eruption began on September 19 and has destroyed or partially destroyed more than 1,000 buildings so far.
