    Scientists observe what they call "incandescent rockfall shed from new fluidal lava" rolling down from the summit of Mayon Volcano in Albay on Thursday, June 8, 2023. Photo taken at about 9.30pm local time. On Friday, Philippine troops, police and rescue workers began forcibly evacuating residents near Mayon Volcano as its increasing unrest indicated a violent eruption of one of the country’s most active volcanoes is possible within weeks or days.

    The crater of Mayon Volcano exhibits a glow — locally known as “banaag" — around its summit lava dome early Friday evening (June 9, 2023). The Mayon Volcano Network, a digital data gathering system, recorded 28 rockfall events since 5 am on Friday. However, there was no volcanic earthquake recorded in Friday, according to volcanologists. Image Credit: Philvolcs | DOST

The area within a 6-kilometer (3.7-mile) radius of Mayon's crater is designed off-limits due to possible volcanic emissions, lava flows, rockfalls and other hazards. But many poor villagers have built houses and tended farms in Mayon's danger zone over the years. Image Credit: AFP

    Superheated streams of gas, debris and rocks cascaded down Mt. Mayon’s upper slope, indicating activity below the surface that could precede a hazardous eruption. The Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (Phivolcs) raised the status of Mayon Volcano in Albay province to Alert Level 3. President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. said an evacuation of residents from the permanent danger zone was underway Friday and promised to provide aid to the displaced until the crisis ended.
