Kapanlagi.com - Mount Etna in Italy is the most active volcano in the world and the highest volcano in Europe. The volcano has erupted again, releasing molten rocks and large red ash clouds.

The mountain, located in Catania, has been active since yesterday afternoon (16/2). According to the Head of the Italian Institute of Geophysics and Volcanology, Stefano Branco, the activity is not dangerous.

In fact, Mount Etna has erupted frequently in the last 500,000 years. This volcano is known for its beauty that attracts tourists.

1. Airport Closed

The mountain, with a height of 3,324 meters, has launched ash more than 10 kilometers into the sky, as reported by Reuters. Eventually, authorities in Catania closed the city's International Airport.

2. Three Villages Monitored

Meanwhile, the Italian Central Emergency Department is also monitoring three villages near Mount Etna, namely Linguaglossa, Fornazzo, and Milo. So far, there have been no casualties and no further information on the situation.

Well, hopefully it's true that this activity is not dangerous. Stay safe everyone!
