Mt Etna Eruption
The National Institute of Geophysics and Volcanology (INGV) Catania branch reported a vigorous lava flow emerging from the crater in the southeast of Mount Etna. Astoundingly, the ejected ash reached heights of about 4,500 meters above sea level. Media coverage underscores the visibility of the lava flow from several kilometers away, prompting a red alert for aircraft navigating the region due to the heightened volcanic activity.
Communities in close proximity, such as Zafferana, found themselves grappling with a layer of Etna ash blanketing roads and vehicles. Local authorities swiftly advocated for precautionary measures to mitigate the impact on the neighboring communities.
