Mount Etna, Italy’s and Europe’s most active volcano, erupted on Monday, unleashing a dramatic pyroclastic flow and sending plumes of ash thousands of feet into the air. Italy’s national volcano monitoring agency confirmed the eruption from the central crater of the Sicilian giant. Despite its intensity, no damage or evacuations were reported, and Catania airport remained operational. Etna’s near-constant activity continues to fascinate scientists and attract tourists. Volcanologists are monitoring the event using seismic tools and drones, watching for potential air traffic disruption due to ash. The eruption highlights the raw power of Earth’s geology beneath one of Italy’s iconic landmarks.
