One of the two dozen active volcanoes in the Philippines, which is situated on the” Ring of Fire” in the Pacific, where earthquakes and volcanic activity are common, is Mount Kanlaon.
” Some local government units ( LGU) have started evacuations. There’s now ash drop in LGUs near Kanlaon”, Bryll Sanor, a catastrophe company staff in Negros Occidental state, said by telephone.
Without specifying how many people had been evacuated so much, the civil defense company reported that emergency evacuations were taking place for those who lived close to the volcano. About 54, 000 people may be affected by the volcano.
The legal defense business stated in a statement that “authorities are preparing for the worst-case circumstance of raising the alert stage.” This may involve more evacuation and safety measures.
The regulation for civil aviation advised pilots to prevent flying close to the mountain, but the regulator declared that all flights near to Mount Kanlaon were normal.
The main sugar producers are Negros Occidental and Negros Oriental.
After the crater released thousands of tonnes of toxic gases in a single moment, hundreds of local residents were forced to flee in September.
Since 1866, Kanlaon has erupted more than 40 days, according to the geosciences company.
Three hikers died in 1996 as a result of the volcano’s dust detonation.
