Etna je najaktivniji evropski vulkan, a sinoćnju erupciju mnogi opisuju kao jednu od najspektakularnijih u poslednjih nekoliko decenija. Poslednja velika erupcija dogodila se 1992. godine.
Erupcije Etne retko izazivaju veliku materijalnu štetu ili ljudske žrtve, pa lokalne vlasti ne očekuju da će poslednja izazvati veće probleme.
