La Palma volcano: Glow from lava river lights up night sky

Eye-catching footage shows a glow of lava river lighting up La Palma night sky amid the volcano eruption.

A new river of lava belched early Saturday from the La Palma volcano, spreading more destruction on the Atlantic Ocean island where over 1,000 buildings have already been engulfed or badly damaged by streams of molten rock.

The partial collapse of the volcanic cone overnight gave birth to a new lava stream that started to follow a similar path down the Cumbre Vieja ridge toward the western shore of the island to the ocean.
