A new eruption of the Etna volcano, accompanied by increased seismic activity, has been detected by specialists of the National Institute of Geophysics and Volcanology of Italy.

A 4.8-magnitude earthquake has hit Sicily around Europe's most active volcano Mount Etna, injuring at least two people, Italian media report, reports BBC

Some buildings were reportedly damaged in what was the latest in dozens of tremors since Etna erupted on Monday.

More than any other Sicilian city, Syracuse reflects the ancient Hellenic history of the Mediterranean’s largest island. Located on the east coast, Syracuse developed from a Greek colony founded by Corinthians in the 7th century BCE.

I was quite surprised when I learned from a Sicilian couple who were tourism professionals that our national carrier Turkish Airlines (THY) was flying four times a week to Catania.

The Italian airline Mistral Air started on April flights between Sofia and Sicily's second largest city – Catania.

The flights will be once a week, on Saturdays, and will be through end of October.
