Volcano eruption in the Canary Islands of Spain continues into the 7th week.

Huge lava fountain throwing chunks of molten rock over 460 m (1 500 feet) in the air shot from up close with a drone as it was being pelted with small fallout. A massive ash cloud is visible as the volcano is now in an explosive phase.
