The eruption of the Mount Etna volcano in Sicily yesterday forced the closure of nearby Catania airport because of the plumes of ash billowing into the sky, airport officials said. Twenty-one scheduled departures from Catania had to be scrapped and 26 arrivals re-routed to alternative destinations. The smaller airport of Comiso in the area was also closed down.

Sicily (Oct. 28, 2002) — On the evening after the initial eruption of Mt. Etna on the Italian island of Sicily, U.S. Navy photographer Richard W. Williams captures this image of a river of lava flowing down the side of the volcano. Dark clouds of pyroclastic ash from the eruption stretched as far as Africa this week and were visible from space during continued volcanic activity. Experts indicate the earthquakes felt subsequent to the initial eruption were not necessarily related to Etna’s rumblings and were optimistic that the lava flows would soon be brought under control.
