6,000 residents have already been forced to leave their homes.

A fresh river of lava has erupted from the La Palma volcano - engulfing at least four homes overnight.

Authorities in the Canary Island are urging calm after more than one-thousand buildings were previously damaged.

Around 6,000 residents were forced to leave their homes when the volcano first erupted last month.
