Flights serving the eastern Sicilian city of Catania were halted after an eruption from nearby Mount Etna, local authorities said, bringing fresh travel troubles to the crisis-plagued Italian airport.

Catania’s mayor has banned the use of motorcycles and bikes while many streets in the city remain covered by ash as a result of the erupting volcano.

Etna is the tallest active volcano in Europe.

Where The Lava Meets The Sea, Stazzo, Sicily

Even though Etna is a relatively calm volcano, it sometimes does reach the sea, as evidenced by this lava-formed coast near Stazzo, Sicily.

#PSA If the media is making you worry a lot by saying #MountEtna is in the middle of a huge eruption, don't panic. Mount #Etna being in the middle of an eruption is the geology equivalent of a day ending in a y. It is what Etna does, same with #Stromboli.

Italy's Mount Etna volcano is spewing smoke and ash in a new eruption.

Heavy clouds around the volcano's summit have impaired visibility, hiding ash discharges into the atmosphere.

Europe’s most active volcano has started erupting, spewing ash on Catania, eastern Sicily’s largest city, and forcing a suspension of flights at that city’s airport.

In early 2021, an eruption of the volcano lasted several weeks.

@neonbubble I've been fortunate and privileged enough to visit several #volcanoes and have seen the bright red lava flowing down the side of #MountEtna from sea at night; beautiful and mesmerizing

If you haven't already, you might appreciate watching #FireOfLove by #NationalGeographic on #DisneyPlus about the careers of noted #volcanologist couple Katia and Maurice #Krafft, and on #Netflix, the sobering, terrifying #TheVolcano #RescueFromWhakaari in #NewZealand about its deadly 2019 #eruption.
