Overview

• An effusive vent opened this morning at 3,000 meters on Bocca Nuova’s southern flank, marking a shift from recent explosive activity.
• The lava flow is advancing southward without generating ash, limiting airborne hazards for nearby towns.
• Seismic tremor remains steady with its source at about 2,800 meters between Voragine and the Northeast Crater, and no infrasonic anomalies have been recorded.
• INGV field teams are performing ground surveys to map the lava effusion and monitor any changes in activity.
• Catania International Airport continues operations under an orange flight alert to manage potential impacts on air traffic.
