On the Italian Mediterranean island of Stromboli, a strong eruption of the volcano of the same name on Sunday created a natural spectacle. According to a statement from the National Institute of Geophysics and Volcanology (INGV), a large stream of lava poured from the crater of the volcano of the same name north of Sicily in the morning and made its way through the valley to the sea. .
Videos (see also above) show thick smoke rising from where the glowing lava flowed into the sea. According to the INGV, there was no information about damage or injuries on Sunday evening.
In a statement, the Civil Defense referred to the general instructions of the mayor of Lipari, to whose municipality Stromboli, which has a population of several hundred, belongs. In it, residents and tourists were asked not to leave the house and to protect their mouth, nose, head and eyes from the ashes. Everyone on a boat should steer out into the open sea.
Volcano erupts regularly
Like Mount Etna in Sicily, Stromboli is an active volcano. The almost 930 meters high Stromboli erupts very regularly and has already become a tourist attraction. Sunday’s event was so powerful that seismic devices struck.
