WATCH: Glowing Lava Pours Down Etna's Eastern Flank | Mount Etna 2026

Описание: CATANIA, Sicily — Mount Etna erupted again on Friday, sending lava down its eastern flank and ash into the sky as renewed volcanic activity intensified, prompting the Etna Volcano Observatory (INGV) to raise the aviation color code to red, the highest level on the four-tier scale. The eruption marks the latest episode in Etna's continuous eruptive phase, which has been ongoing since December 24, 2025, and has included several major paroxysms this year, most recently on July 28-30. Lava has generally remained confined to the uninhabited Valle del Bove depression on the volcano's eastern side, and Catania's Fontanarossa Airport has continued operating during past episodes, though flights have faced delays and diversions as ash drifts through commercial flight paths. Etna, Europe's largest and most active volcano, is known for frequently alternating between intense eruptive bursts and calmer periods. No injuries or ground damage have been reported.
