The lava fountain rose to a height of about 4.5 km above sea level, and ash settled in the foothill village north of the volcano.
The current phase of the eruption is limited to the summit of Etna and does not affect the operation of the Vincenzo Bellini International Airport in Catania.
During Etna’s active eruption in August, the airport had to be closed and road traffic restricted.
Etna is the highest and most active volcano in Europe. It is located on the east coast of Sicily, near the cities of Messina and Catania. It is the highest currently active volcano in Europe. Its height changes with each eruption.
According to various sources, there are from 200 to 400 volcanic craters located in Mount Etna. On average, one of them erupts lava flows every three months.
