26 earthquakes detected in Tenerife's Las Cañadas del Teide crater raise concerns over potential volcanic activity.

26 earthquakes detected in Tenerife's Las Cañadas del Teide crater raise concerns about potential volcanic activity. The Volcanological Institute of the Canary Islands (Involcan) reports no danger to the public and no change in eruption probability in short to medium term. The seismic swarm is linked to pressurization within the volcanic-hydrothermal system, possibly due to magmatic gas injection. The last major Tenerife eruption was in 1909.
