Supervolcano in Italy on the brink of eruption after 500 years

TL;DR Summary
Authorities are warning about "signs of reactivation" at Campi Flegrei, the largest supervolcano in Europe, located just nine kilometers from Naples, Italy. A study by researchers from University College London and the Italian National Research Institute for Geophysics and Volcanology found that the volcano is approaching a critical stage, but this does not guarantee an eruption. In 2018, scientists warned that the situation at Campi Flegrei had become more dangerous. Meanwhile, the Kilauea volcano in Hawaii recently erupted, releasing 65,000 tons of sulfur dioxide.
