a The explosion of a gas canister used for cooking (oxidised remains highlighted in orange in lower middle of photo), presumably as a result of proximity with the lava flow, b punctured a large hole in the side of this squared masonry building (photo taken inside building); The building remained otherwise intact; c A building in Bangaeira that was not inundated or destroyed by the surrounding lava flow but was left isolated within the flow. By the time of our visit, approximately 11 weeks after impact, a road had been prepared to allow the family to return and people and donkeys to transport provisions to the building. Photographs: S.F.
