Scientists have speculated that Etna may set off deadly tsunamis alongside the coast of Italy and Sicily if the enormous volcano slides into the Mediterranean sea after Europes biggest active volcano has suffered a dramatic rupture after a "new cut-up" opened

Mount Etna had suffered a dramatic rupture after a "new cut-up" opened up alongside its energetic crater. Footage from the scene exhibits lava rocks flying into the air and orange streams oozing down Mount Etna's slopes. The brand new cut up within the crater seems to have bisected the well-known volcano. The risky volcano started erupting final Sunday, in keeping with an area volcanologist. Boris Behncke, from the INGV-Osservatorio Etneo in Catania, Sicily, stated that lava started "oozing" from the Etna's southeast crater and towards the east final weekend.

Sunday, 24 January 2021 A magnitude 7.0 quake, rocks the South Shetland Islands causing panic in Chile with a mistaken tsunami warning: 12th major quake of 2021 highest no since 2009: 45 volcanoes active, 40 along The Pacific Ring Of Fire!

A second lava overflow was detected from the north facet of the identical crater days later. Following the preliminary eruption, volcanic ash coated automobiles of the close-by small village of Milo, close to Catania. By Monday night, Mr Behncke tweeted that the crater had exploded in a "new paroxysmal eruptive episode," releasing bursts of lava, sizzling ash and fuel. A number of movies exhibit the volcano persevering with to spew effervescent lava and sizzling ash into the Sicilian sky all through this week. Researchers revealing there was a "close to fixed" eruption over a previous couple of days because it first burst again into life on the weekend.

Friday, 22 January 2021 Here's another! Mexico's colossus and most active volcano blow ash and gas emissions 23,000ft into the sky: The Eruption continues an impressive start to 2021 concerning volcanic and seismic activity in and around The Pacific Ring Of Fire with 11 major quakes, mag 6 or higher and a plethora of volcanoes erupting or showing activity in the first 3 weeks of 2021.

Italian authorities swiftly issued an ash advisory for surrounding cities, and the particles had been discovered as distant as Fleri, which lies 18 miles (28.9 kilometres) from the volcano. Scientists have speculated that Etna may set off deadly tsunamis alongside the coast of Italy and Sicily if the enormous volcano slides into the Mediterranean sea. Evaluation of the energetic volcano has discovered Etna is step by step creeping in the direction of the ocean beneath the majority of its personal weight.

The sluggish motion has brought on one of many volcano's sides on the east of Sicily to dangerously weaken. If the volcano collapses into the ocean, it "may result in a tsunami" within the well-liked Italian vacation spot. Dr Morelia Urlaub, of the Helmholtz Centre for Ocean Analysis in Germany, warned massive parts of the volcano are "constantly slipping into the ocean". She stated: "This motion is vital to check because it may result in a catastrophic collapse of the volcano. "The outcomes of this research counsel Etna's flank motion in truth poses a higher hazard than beforehand thought."
