New Etna Volcano Eruption - Lava Flows, See Stunning Videos and Images

Etna volcano is erupting again, with lava flow recorded within the Valle del Bove. The eruption began in the afternoon of January 1, 2026, from an opening at an altitude of 2,000-2,100 meters, with the lava reaching 1,500 meters. Impressive videos and images of the eruption, such as those by Emilio Messina, show the slow movement of the lava within the valley, which acts as a natural receiver. Authorities assure that there is no danger to inhabited areas and are closely monitoring the situation. So far, no damage to infrastructure has been reported. The lava flow is visible in the videos and photos circulated on social media. Etna is the most active volcano in Europe and frequently exhibits similar activity. Authorities are constantly on alert and continuously inform the public about any developments. The Valle del Bove, due to its morphology, limits the spread of lava. This eruption is part of the volcano's normal activity and does not cause concern to the authorities. Monitoring continues to ensure the safety of residents and infrastructure. The lava flow remains within the valley, without threatening settlements.
