Lava spews from Sicily's Mount Etna

 Rome (AFP) May 10, 2008
 Lava spewed Saturday from the southeastern crater of Mount Etna, the highest active volcano in Europe, into an uninhabited area, the Palermo Geophysics and Vulcanology Institute said.

The last eruption of Mount Etna, on the island of Sicily, was in November last year, two months after another eruption forced a temporary closure of nearby Catania airport due to flying lava and clouds of ash.

The last truly spectacular eruption was in the summer of 2001.
