Second lava stream from volcano on island of La Palma in Spain reaches ocean

The Cumbre Vieja volcano on the Spanish island of La Palma has been erupting for 50 days. Despite the fact that the eruptions seemed to have eased, scientists do not know when the eruptions will come to an end.

The eruption of the Cumbre Vieja volcano on the Spanish island of La Palma entered its eighth week, powerful as ever and showing no signs of stopping.
