Impressive new video captures the moment when Mount Etna erupted recently

New video shows the moment when Mount Etna, Europe’s largest active volcano, spewed bubbling lava and hot ash into Sicily’s sky earlier this week.

On Sunday (January 17), lava began to “leak” from the crater southeast of Etna and towards the east, according to Boris Behncke, volcanologist at INGV-Osservatorio Etneo in Catania, Sicily, Express reported. On Monday night, the crater exploded in a “new paroxysmal eruptive episode”, releasing explosions of lava, hot ashes and gas, Behncke tweeted.
