During the 1669 eruption of Mount Etna, the aid agencies that responded included local governmental authorities, religious organizations, and private donors who provided resources such as food, shelter, and medical assistance to the affected population. These agencies worked together to support those impacted by the eruption and help rebuild communities in the aftermath.
In 1669, the Great Fire of 1669 ravaged the city of Vienna, Austria, destroying many buildings and homes. Additionally, the English Parliament passed the Habeas Corpus Act in 1669, establishing legal protection for individuals against arbitrary detention.

The 1669 eruption of Mount Etna killed 20,000 people. The death rate was so high because citizens refused to leave their city before the eruption occurred.

It was March 11, 1669 and it lasted for 4 months.

Mount Etna's eruption in 1669 was first reported to cause the death of near 17,000 people and letting 27,000 homeless. However, later studies revealed that there have only been 77 confirmed human deaths directly related to Mt. Etna over the years. The former reports can be assumed to be a confusion, made by the news media, with the earthquake that took place in southeast Sicily, in 1693.
Well the question needs to be a bit more precise because Mount Etna has erupted many times and killed no doubt millions of people but I do know that the death toll in the eruption of 1669 (which is Mount Etna's biggest eruption) is 17,000. Hope this helped :)
