An Italian volcano suddenly erupted on Monday in a spectacular explosion that sent a torrent of debris and hot ash pouring down the mountainside.

The volcano on Stromboli, an island located off the coast of Sicily, is one of the most active on earth.

The explosion and "landslide events" lasted for a "duration of 4 minutes," according to Italy's National Institute of Geophysics and Volcanology.

This is the second above-average explosion on Stromboli in the past two weeks. On the evening of Nov. 10, INGV's cameras captured another large eruption at the volcano.

According to Oregon State University, the volcano rarely causes loss of life. Its most dramatic eruption in recent history occurred in 1930, when pyroclastic flows and scalding seawater killed four people.

The most recent death on the volcano was in 2019, when a 35-year-old hiker from Sicily was struck by erupting rock and killed.
