Etna erupts as Sicily's Catania Airport shuts flights amid ash cloud
Mount Etna blasted ash into the Sicilian sky, with emissions from the Voragine crater rising to about 1.5 km. The eruption led to the temporary closure of Catania Fontanarossa airport and cancellations/rescheduling of ITA Airways flights, as authorities warned the ash cloud could drift south in the coming hours.
