As per news report of Rt.com, the lava from the Cumbre Vieja volcano on the island of La Palma reached the ocean near the town of Tazacorte shortly after 11pm local time on Tuesday, news channel TVE Canarias reported. The volcano, which began erupting on September 19, has been ejecting massive flows of lava that have destroyed crops, roads, houses, and villas in the countryside. Videos shared on social media show that a delta has formed as red-hot lava continues to move down the coastal cliff and slide into the water.
