On 27 October, a Canadair CL-415 firefighting aircraft (registered I-DPCN) with two pilot-firefighters on board was on a mission to extinguish a vast fire on the slopes of the volcano Etna near Catania, Italy, when the disaster occurred.

A search-and-rescue team has been deployed to recover the bodies of the pilots.
