Mama Etna goes 20th Paroxysm 
22-23 May 2021 (count since 16 Feb 2021)
Etna appears to have changed pace again... her heart is beating fast with paroxysms close to one another ! I have barely found any photos of the eruption yet... perhaps because Sicily was benched before the TV screens, watching Eurovision Song Festival, where Italy won first time after 30 years.

The first two videos give some background about the Mount Nyiragongo volcano and the present situation:
It is quite interesting to scroll through the live cameras of some of the volcanoes. Here is Etna: Volcano Etna Italy
And Iceland: Live volcanic eruption in Iceland!
They only go back about 12 hours.
One channel includes more live cameras of volcanoes in one show. The volcanoes camera view change over time. They also list the latest earthquakes which apparently are read by text to speech function as they occur.
Volcanoes Live, Worldwide.
VolcanoverseLive monitoring of volcanoes and earthquakes 24/7 - worldwide. We offer a collection of live streams from cameras around the world showing volcanic hot spots as well as live seismic data. READ BEFORE WATCH:We are not volcanologists, geologists or scientists.

Having followed Volcanoes Live, Worldwide it turned out I had to look up the meaning of flight level and what it means for the interpretation of the information provided. The conclusion is at the end.
By way of explanation, here is a screen-shot:
In the lower-left corner, there is a list of ash warnings issued for planes. Using Subancaya as an example it says "Sabancaya (FL270)" FL270 means flight level 270. About flight level the Wiki says:
Since the planes work with pressure altitude, FL270 means 27,000 feet above where the medium pressure at mean sea level of 1013.25 hPa is situated. In case an area is experiencing a high-pressure system, the mean sea level will have a pressure that is higher than 1013.25 hPa. As the pressure reduces with altitude, one would then encounter 1013.25 hPa up in the air. The reverse is the case when there is a low-pressure system passing over an area.
While "Sabancaya (FL270)" indicates 27,000 feet above mean sea level pressure, one would, ignoring the few hundred feet of difference in case of unusual air pressure, need to subtract the altitude of the volcano, to find out how high the ash is forecasted to reach above the volcano. The Wiki for Sabancaya, informs us that:
Similar calculations would need to be done with the other warnings and volcanoes, but the bottom line is that a warning of FL270 does not mean a worse eruption than a warning above another but much lower volcano with only the number FL145 attached.

To convert feet to meters one can use a converter or calculator (1 foot is 0.3048 m).

The Wiki for Sabancaya, informs us that:
The above means that under normal conditions the Sabancaya summit is located at around FL196 and therefore that the difference up to FL270 is about 76 flight levels or 7600 feet or roughly 2320 meters, the clearance we would need if we wish to pass above the volcano.
Similar calculations would need to be done with the other warnings and volcanoes, but the bottom line is that a warning of FL270 does not mean a worse eruption than a warning above another but much lower volcano with only the number FL145 attached.
First a minor correction:
A channel called Morning D.E.W. publishes weekly volcano activity report with news from around the globe, mixed with a few slots for advertisement. For this week there is:
Nyiragongo Volcano ERUPTS / 42 Active and Erupting Volcanoes / Volcano Activity Report Week 21
From FL196-FL270 there is only a difference of 74FL so it is 7400 feet corresponding to 2260 meters.

On Volcanoes Worldwide, the live feed from Etna showed a new paroxysm. Here is a screenshot from a live feed:Mama Etna goes 20th Paroxysm
22-23 May 2021 (count since 16 Feb 2021)
Etna appears to have changed pace again... her heart is beating fast with paroxysms close to one another !
I guess there are many other volcanoes that could show similar pictures if only the live cameras were close enough and maintained. In many locations, one could imagine cameras would have to be protected not to disappear.
One question is if an eruption of a volcano could be induced by a weapon?
This session mentions that earthquakes can be induced:
cassiopaea.org
In the video, the person describes the response of the sceptics, which say it was just a camera issue. Whether this example is real or not, one could also claim that if one can help earthquakes about then why not volcanoes. While what is seen is a beam of light, the electromagnetic spectrum is mostly invisible and many other types of beams could be used. Is it possible that some powers in the world have experimented with activating volcanoes? If so, one wonders how much they play around.

In this video from January 2015, there is allegedly an example of a volcano going off right after it was hit by a beam of light:
The three attached photos show the date 2020-12-17 at 19:59:27; (beam) 19:59:29 (eruption begins) and 19:59:36 (more full eruption and possibly a second beam).

After finishing the last post, I checked Etna again and found some really good live footage with sound recorded by a Ciclope Film with this link for the live feed where the attached screenshot is from.

M4.7 quake reported in Rawanda. I think it belongs in this thread because the reports are linking it to the activity at Mount Nyiragongo volcano in DR Congo. One seismologist is i think saying that it may be even closer to the volcano but the closest seismometre is in Rwanda - something like that.

Ebeko volcano has erupted, spewing ash 3 kilometers into the sky.
Ebeko volcano in the Kuril Islands threw ash to a height of 3 km
The volcano Ebeko on the Kuril island of Paramushir ejected a column of ash to a height of 3 kilometers during the eruption, the press service of the Russian Emergencies Ministry for the Sakhalin Region reported.

Alaska’s Great Sitkin volcano erupts: US Geological Survey issues ‘red warning’ for aviation
The Alaska Volcano Observatory (AVO) and the US Geological Survey (USGS) have issued a ‘red warning’ to aviation as the Great Sitkin volcano erupts, spewing an ash plume to 15,000ft (4,600m).

Interesting observation from dutchsinse the other day regarding a large plume of moisture that apparently originated at ground level in Southern California, Mojave Desert also suggests possible seismic activity to follow — perhaps related to recent Tahoe activity?
From the YT description:
Wonder what the moisture could have been if not water vapor?

A search for UFOs in this thread revealed limited results. In an older session, there is an indication that at least one volcano serves as a window area.

There are several videos for the Sakurajima volcano in Japan and the Popocatépetl in Mexico. Some videos call what they see a ufo, though some appear similar to satellites, or a reflection from the lens. In one video they say an aircraft can not go through a volcanic cloud, but what if the "ufo" just was far behind? Even with this much scepticism, there seem to be some recordings that are a little harder.
And is it possible that a volcano could attract electrically charged fragments similar to what happened to a fertilizer plant?

It is not clear if similar conditions are present at other volcanoes. I did a general search for ufo volcano but found that naming a particular volcano and adding ufo or ovni (for Spanish) was more helpful. Here is a video from Etna, that shows a light followed by a volcanic outburst.
