Italy's Mount Etna spews huge plume of ash, gas
A huge plume of ash, gas and rock spewed forth on Monday from Italy's Mount Etna, Europe's largest active volcano, but authorities said there was no current danger to the population. Advertisement Images showed a massive grey cloud billowing forth from the volcano on the island of Sicily, beginning about 11.24am local time (09:24 GMT), according to the National Institute of Geophysics and Volcanology (INGV). Surveillance cameras showed 'a pyroclastic flow probably produced by a collapse of material from the northern flank of the Southeast Crater', the agency said. A pyroclastic flow occurs when volcanic rock, ash and hot gases surge from volcanoes. They are extremely dangerous. The explosive activity 'had transitioned to a lava fountain', INGV said, with the plume of ash expected to dissipate towards the southwest. Advertisement The president of the region of Sicily, Renato Schifani, said experts had assured him there was 'no danger for the population', with the flow not having passed the Valley of the Lions, an area frequented by tourists.
