Mount Etna's volcanic activity, including lava ash emissions and a 4 km high eruptive cloud, has led to the closure of Catania Airport in Sicily for multiple days. The airport operator has suspended all incoming and outgoing flights, with only a few exceptions, due to the aviation alert (Vona) issued by INGV at the highest level of warning. The disruption has affected thousands of travelers, with flights being diverted or cancelled. The airport remains closed until at least Monday noon, with many connections redirected to other Sicilian airports.
