"On Monday morning local time, a huge cloud of ash, hot gas and rock fragments
began spewing from Italy’s Mount Etna.
An enormous plume was seen stretching several kilometres into the sky from the
mountain on the island of Sicily, which is the largest active volcano in
Europe.
While the blast created an impressive sight, the eruption resulted in no
reported injuries or damage and barely even disrupted flights on or off the
island. Mount Etna eruptions are commonly described as “Strombolian eruptions”
– though as we will see, that may not apply to this event."
