I came across this channel on YT. The latest info about La Palma from a gentleman living there. He is posting regular videos and updates.

Thank you Mia .
The eruption has not stopped all night and is still ongoing its still erupting super hot yellow magma from the smaller side vent. https://youtu.be/Un3MmZy75wc The latest data from the Canary Islands Government ensure that the lava is located about 300 meters from the coast. Meanwhile, it continues to advance through the affected population centers, gobbling up everything in its path. http: // www.connectionbtc.com

I found this statement on Facebook
''I would like to tell you a story. A story that fits the terms ′′ bad luck," ′′ luxury problems ′′ and ′′ can you buy new or rebuild again," My parents neighbors, a couple in late 60 s, have been traveling to La Palma for around 20 years. 11 years ago they bought a house there and spent several months every year, especially in the winter half year. On the second day they learned that their house, their garden is no more. The neighbors probably opened the building, got some important things out and drove the almost new car away. And made a video sent to my well-known couple. What remains is a plot with 8 meters of lava. Now of course you can say: ′′ Bad luck, who builds on a volcano..." And also: ′′ Anyone who buys a house there as a wealthy German, will buy a new one." Apart from not just buying a new house like that, that may be true in principle. But what you don't consider: If you spend 4 months in one place every year, it becomes somehow home. You travel there not only to escape winter, but also because you have friends there. One is happy to meet the community again: the neighbors, the baker, the newspaper dealer, the owner of the restaurant, the village policeman. And you can't rebuild all of that or buy it with Money. Growing social structures, you don't create them just like that. And social structures give hold, social warmth and comfort. And then, then you have to realize that you, as a wealthy German, are good at it, but still have one thing in common with everyone affected by this volcanic eruption. But also with those who have to move away after a devastating Earthquake (I am thinking, for example, of central Italy, where people have lived in emergency shelters near L ' Aquila for 10 years): The feeling of uprooting, lost social structure and homelessness. Before that, everyone is the same. And then sentences like ′′ bad luck ′′ and ′′ you can rebuild that ′′ look a little different.'' Volcanoes and Volcanism Facebook
