Etna ash cloud prompts highest aviation alert; Catania airport stays open
Anadolu Agency EN·IT·about 9 hours ago
Mount Etna erupted on Thursday, ejecting an ash cloud to about 4 km, prompting Italy's vulcanology institute to issue a warning. The eruption's intensity and impact on air traffic are uncertain. This is a routine volcanic event for Etna, but it could disrupt regional flights if ash drifts into air corridors.
