A sudden collapse at Mount Etna’s southeast crater has triggered a powerful volcanic eruption in Sicily, sending ash and lava into the skies above Catania.
A powerful eruption occurred at Mount Etna early on 2 June 2025 following a structural collapse at the volcano’s southeast crater, located at approximately 2,900 metres above sea level. The event took place in the early morning hours near the city of Catania, in southern Italy’s Sicily region.
According to the Catania Branch of the National Institute of Geophysics and Volcanology (INGV) and the Etna Observatory, the collapse triggered a strong and intense flow of volcanic ash and lava. Authorities are monitoring the situation closely, though no immediate reports of injuries or evacuations have been released.
Mount Etna, Europe’s most active volcano, frequently experiences eruptions, but the sudden collapse and subsequent eruption mark a significant event in its recent activity. Emergency services and scientists remain on alert as the eruption continues to evolve.
