Etna<\/strong> is a Sicilian volcano originating in the Quaternary and is the highest terrestrial active volcano of the Eurasian plate.<\/p>\n

Its frequent eruptions throughout history have changed, sometimes even profoundly, the surrounding landscape, repeatedly threatening the populations that have settled around it over the millennia.<\/p>\n

In this period it looks like a volcanic desert, as shown by a spectacular video shot last April by the Local Team drone:\u00a0 Etna, tutto \u00e8 deserto durante l’emergenza Coronavirus.<\/strong><\/a>
\nA spectacular flight over the slopes of Etna. Everything is deserted and silent.<\/p>\n

Another Local Team video, in June 2019, resumed an extraordinary eruption of the volcano: Eruzio<\/strong>ne Etna, il drone sfida i lapill<\/strong>i<\/strong><\/a>: spectacular close-up pictures.
\nThe complete sequence of images shot one step away from the eruptive fracture, with the lava flowing in quantity in the midst of continuous explosions.<\/p>\n

Mount Etna has been a World Heritage Site since 2013<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
