The lava[35] flow covered over 1,000 hectares[36], prompting the evacuation of around 7,000 people[37]. The lava[38] flow was about 3.5 kilometres (2.2 miles) wide at its widest point, about 6.2 kilometres (3.9 miles) long and reached the sea, destroying more than 3,000 buildings and 6,500 beds in towns as Puerto Naos or La Bombilla in Los Llanos de Aridane closed due to carbon dioxide (CO2) diffuse[39] degassing. For its first two months, the eruption was assigned a rating on the Volcanic Explosivity Index (VEI) of VEI 2. On 20 November 2021, the scientific committee of the Canary Islands Volcanic Emergency Plan raised the rating from VEI 2 to VEI 3. [40] The volcano released large amounts of toxic sulphur dioxide gas. As a result, the authorities ordered 30,000 residents of three municipalities to remain indoors. On 25 December[41], the eruption was declared to have ended after three months.[42][43] the next step was the process of construction of 1,000 millions € [44].
