The World: Moon Landing? NO, This is La Palma's Volcano

The perilous work of scientists 'at the mercy' of La Palma's volcano

With no end to the eruption in sight, rivers of lava are continuing to flow towards the sea

There is no sign that the volcanic eruption on the Spanish island of La Palma is coming to an end even four weeks after it began, officials have admitted.

The volcano has so far destroyed more than 1,800 buildings, mostly homes, with 7,000 people forced to flee, and the Canary Island's 85,000 residents have to endure dozens of minor earthquakes most days. On Sunday alone, there were more than 40 seismic movements, the largest of which measured 4.3, according to the Spanish National Geographical Institute.

Angel Victor Torres, the president of the Canary Islands, said scientists monitoring the eruption that began Sept 19 had seen no indications that it was abating, as rivers of lava continue flowing slowly towards the sea. The eruption has covered a wide area with volcanic ash and the ash plume is several miles high.

"We are at the mercy of the volcano," Mr Torres told reporters. "It's the only one who can decide when this ends."

Airlines have sporadically cancelled flights to the islands, including 56 over Saturday and Sunday, due to the ash.

The latest satellite imagery showed the molten rock has covered 754 hectares (almost 1,900 acres), most of it countryside and farm land. Almost 37 miles of roads have also been ruined.

The island's economy is heavily dependent on tourism and banana plantations. The government has pledged millions of euros to help rebuild damaged infrastructure.
