Several ash and lava samples from the Mt. Etna 2021/2022 activity have been analyzed by means of gamma-ray spectrometry using the HpGe detector available at the LARA laboratory of INFN-LNS. These measurements aim to the evaluation of the $^{222}Rn$ concentration in the erupted magma samples. The results have shown an interesting disequilibrium within nuclide activities in the $^{238}U$ decay chain. The obtained results together with volcanological inputs can allow us to infer interesting information about the dynamics of gas and magma transfer inside the volcano during the eruption.
