By The Associated Press

LOS LLANOS DE ARIDANE, Canary Islands—Three weeks since its eruption upended the lives of thousands, the volcano on Spain’s La Palma island is still spewing out endless streams of lava with no signs of ceasing.

Authorities on Sunday monitored a new stream of molten rock that has added to the destruction of over 1,100 buildings. Anything in the path of the lava—homes, farms, swimming pools, and industrial buildings in the largely agricultural area—has been consumed.
