In 1944, Mount Vesuvius erupted on March 18, unleashing a significant volcanic explosion that resulted in the destruction of several villages and the displacement of thousands of residents. The eruption produced ash and pyroclastic flows, affecting areas around Naples, Italy. It was one of the most destructive eruptions of the 20th century, causing extensive damage to infrastructure and farmland. Fortunately, due to improved monitoring and evacuation efforts, there were fewer casualties compared to past eruptions.
