The eruption, which began on Sunday, has caused thousands to flee, with lava spewing from a new crack in the active Cumbre Vieja volcano.
Now, a drone footage shared by Reuters shows a glimpse of how the La Palma volcano seeps into a swimming pool while also destroying several houses on its way to the coast.

Another footage shared by Spanish firefighters on Twitter shows lava debris slowly moving through a town following the eruption. The firefighter account wrote in a video caption, translated from Spanish: “The force of nature against which we can do nothing” as the emergency personnel were only able to watch.
According to sources, more than 5,500 people were evacuated after lava began to flow on Sunday from the volcano. The Spanish island last saw such a major eruption in 1971.
