The first eruption began on the evening of February 8 and remains active, with the lava flow still emerging from the fissure at the southern base of the Bocca Nuova crater. Mount Etna on Monday (February 10) staged a mesmerising spectacle with lava spewing from the Bocca Nuova crater, illuminating the snowy surroundings of the volcano's summit. https://youtu.be/_qjW8lZTKrk
The eruption appears to have attracted thrill seekers, keen to test their courage and mettle in the face of danger. A video posted to social media channels shows a number of skiers coming down the snowy slopes of Etna, with hot rivers of lava streaming from the crater just behind them. The astonishing clip was posted to the X social media channel by the user Mambo Italiano. In text accompanying the video, they wrote: "What's happening in Sicily - Italy is absolutely extraordinary "Mount Etna is erupting with its summit covered in snow. Here are some explorers skiing between snow and fire! Unprecedented." Drone footage also caught the moment the volcano started erupting last weekend. The breathtaking footage shows plumes of thick black smoke rising from the snowcapped summit of Etna, and lava flowing from the new Bocca Nuova crater. At 3,330 metres Etna is Europe's highest volcano, towering above the Sicilian town of Catania.
