Sicily’s Mount Etna has put on a fiery show, sending a cloud of smoke and ash miles into the air, but officials said the activity posed no danger to the population. The level of alert due to the volcanic activity was raised at the Catania airport Monday, but no immediate interruptions were reported. Italy’s INGV National Institute of Geophysics and Volcanology said the spectacle on Europe’s most active volcano was caused when part of the southeast crater collapsed, resulting in hot lava flows. Officials said the ash cloud emission had ended by the afternoon. It was the 14th eruptive phase in recent months.
