Galapagos' La Cumbre volcano on Fernandina island erupted, the largest since 2017, posing no risk to humans.

An uninhabited Galapagos island volcano, La Cumbre on Fernandina island, has erupted, lighting up the night sky as lava tumbled down its sides towards the sea. The volcano's eruption, which began at midnight on Saturday, is said to be the largest since 2017 by Ecuador's Geophysical Institute. The island is home to various species such as iguanas, penguins, and flightless cormorants, though the eruption poses no risk to humans.
