Summary

edit
Description
English: The eruption of the Cumbra Vieja volcano has now been ongoing for more than a month and is yet to show any sign of calming down. A thick layer of ash covers the areas around the eruption vents and several dwellings and infrastructures are heavily affected by ashfall. Dozens of earthquakes have also been felt on the surface: the strongest, with a magnitude of 4.8, was recorded in the evening of 19 October. According to the latest map released by the Copernicus Emergency Management Service, 2,185 buildings have been destroyed and more than 866 hectares covered by the lava flow (as of 19 October at 18:56 UTC). The evolution of the lava flow over the last 20 days can be observed thanks to the images acquired on 30 September, 10, 15 and 20 October 2021 by the Copernicus Sentinel-2 satellites.
