A local airport in Italy remained closed after Mount Etna's latest eruption.

The volcano shot lava and ash into the sky throughout the weekend.

Catania's airport, located in eastern Sicily, shut down on Monday -- a number of flight departures and arrivals canceled.

At least two flights were diverted to the airport in Palermo, located in the western part of Sicily.

Mount Etna is Europe's most active volcano.

A series of eruptions taking place in recent weeks has occasionally caused a change in flight routes.

So far, villages on the mountain's slopes haven't been evacuated.

Mount Etna's last major eruption took place in 1992.
