Mount Etna: Bursts of lava shoot from craters in 6th week of volcanic activity

Global News published this video item, entitled “Mount Etna: Bursts of lava shoot from craters in 6th week of volcanic activity” – below is their description.

Mount Etna, Europe’s tallest active volcano in Sicily, has been treating locals to spectacular displays of lava since its first eruption on February 16.

The volcano leaped into action again on March 31, sending metre-high streams of lava into the night sky.

Occasionally the volcano has spewed ash over surrounding villages and the nearby town of Catania but has not put residents at risk.

In This Story: Volcano

A volcano is a rupture in the crust of a planetary-mass object, such as Earth, that allows hot lava, volcanic ash, and gases to escape from a magma chamber below the surface. On Earth, volcanoes are most often found where tectonic plates are diverging or converging, and most are found underwater.
