Milan (AP) – The families of Mount Etna, the volcano that wanders in the eastern Sicily, the world again with an amazing show, and the smoke and high in the sky.
However, the specified event on Monday was the most rare flow of beams than the invisible southwest hole from a distance.
The volcano is the most active in Europe, and the largest continent. Etna attracts hikers and travelers to their slopes while less adventurous tourists can take it from a distant distance, amazingly from the ionic sea.
The Era’s eruption has never been injured or evacuated, but he sent a group of tourists on the wings that were operated, and it was taken by a video posted on social media with a tall smoke in the background.
The authorities confirmed that there was no danger to the population, and the flow of packages-a fast-moving mixture of fragments of rocks, gas and ash-was limited to about 2 kilometers (more than a mile) and the valley did not exceed Del Leon, or Wadi al-Assad, which constitutes a natural containment space.
Etna was recently active, and this was the fourteenth episode since mid -March. Marco Vicaru, head of the National Association for Flad Science in Italy, said on Tuesday that the latest packages with great arrival were recorded on February 10, 2022, October 23, 2021, December 13, 2020 and February 11, 2014.
What happens now?
After calm for 19 days, Etna began to erupt with gunshots of gas and ash, followed by moderate volcanic lava flow on the eastern slope, followed by a smaller flow to the south.
At about ten o’clock in the morning on Monday, Etna exploded with the first major eruption of violence for this year: lava fountains and a column of ash and gas that rose several kilometers, or miles, in the air. The event fell around 11:23 am when the bundle flowed, when the magma was mixed with snow, two kilometers (more than a mile) to the Del Leon Valley within one minute.
By late in the afternoon, the scientists said the event had calmed down.
Form
Etna Towers about 3350 meters (about 11050 feet) above sea level and 35 km (22 miles), although volcanic activity has changed the mountain height over time.
Sometimes, the airport in Catania, the largest city in East Sicily, must close for hours or days, when the ash in the air in the air in the area makes dangerous. A warning was placed during the last event, but the airport was not closed.
With ETNA lava flows largely on its uninhabited slopes, life in towns and villages goes elsewhere on the mountain. Among the benefits of the volcano: agricultural lands and fertile tourism.
The deadly past
Old Greek myths, ETNA had dozens of explosions known in their history. The revolution was credited in 396 BC to maintain the Carthage Army.
In 1669, in what was considered the worst eruption of the volcano, the lava buried a group of Catania, about 23 km (15 miles) and destroyed dozens of villages. In 1928, the railway crossed the mountain base.
