Ec2 Instance stuck in stopping - Can't change volume

Question

Hi, my Ec2 instance stopped working. When I tried to stopped it, it got stuck in "stopping". I can see there is a error with a volume, but I can't change it (I get error when I try to create an snapshot "An internal error has occurred").

Please, help!

My instance id is i-09dc146b1823050dd
