Summary

edit
Description
English: The seventh paroxysm of the Etna volcano within two weeks occurred on the morning of 28 February 2021. This episode was very brief but rather powerful: the lava fountains did not reach significant heights, but an impressive column of volcanic debris and hot gases was emitted. The ash fallout reached several municipalities more than 20 km east from the crater, and the massive fallout of rock fragments ejected from the volcano slowed down the transit on the Messina to Catania motorway. This new image, acquired by one of the Copernicus Sentinel-2 satellites on 28 February 2021 at 9:50 UTC (about one hour and 30 min after the eruptive event), shows the ash plume drifting away in the Mediterranean Sea.
