Various sources of lava and ash emission open on one flank of the cone
The new wash runs along the northwest slope at the height of Tacande
Different sources of lava and ash emission have opened in the last hours on one of the flanks and in the rear area of the volcano cone in Cumbre Vieja, La Palma , according to the Canary Islands Volcanological Institute (Involcan).
In a video that has been published on social networks, the first of the mouths that were recorded this morning can be seen, through which abundant pyroclastic material and lava come out that feeds a new wash.
But you can also see other points of lava emission and one of them through which abundant ash comes out.
The new stream runs along the northwest slope near Tacande, the IGN volcanologist Stavros Meletlidis informed Efe.
The lava advances at approximately 6 meters per minute, according to Maletlidis calculations, and the direction of the flow is east, west, pointing towards the polygon that has already destroyed previous lava flows.
Seismicity has experienced a rebound in recent hours, with fifty earthquakes located since last midnight, mostly at intermediate depths, and three of them felt by the population.
According to IGN data, three of these earthquakes had a magnitude of 3.5, one of them with a hypocenter located in Fuencaliente, 11 kilometers from the earth's surface. It was felt by the population with a maximum intensity of III on a scale from I to XII.
In total, 14 earthquakes of the earthquakes counted since last midnight had a magnitude of three or higher.
