Etna (Sicily, Italy): After little more than 2 days since Sunday's paroxysm, the 9th such episode of vigorous lava fountaining from the volcano's New SE crater occurred this afternoon. It was remarkable for its long duration.
Around noon, first signs of reactivation of the New SE crater could be noticed in the form of small, intermittent strombolian-type explosions. Starting from 13:24 local time, volcanic tremor began to rise sharply, the typical sign for the impending onset of a new paroxysm (lava fountaining episode).

...2 Mar:
For now, the volcano has remained mostly calm 48 hours since the latest lava fountaining episode.
Intermittent strombolian explosions with mild ash emissions continue from the Voragine crater, while the New SE crater is emitting steam and dilute ash plumes. At night, a glowing spot at the eastern end of the eruptive fissure could be seen, but no explosions.
Volcanic tremor levels are at low levels, something that can change quickly.

Ebeko (Paramushir Island): (2 Mar) Volcanic Ash Advisory Center Tokyo (VAAC) issued the following report: ERUPTION AT 20210301/2332Z FL070 EXTD SE REPORTED OBS VA DTG:01/2330Z

Sinabung (Sumatra, Indonesia): A large collapse of the active lava dome generated a massive pyroclastic flow this morning, that traveled about 5 km and generated a huge ash cloud that also rose about 5 km above the volcano.
During January to March 1, 2021, the volcano observatory had registered 37 explosive eruptions, resulting in ash columns reaching up to 1000 m from the summit of the volcano. Small to medium pyroclastic flows (avalanches of hot material caused by collapses on the unstable flanks of the dome) had been reaching distances of 1500-2500 meters from the summit towards the east, southeast and south.
