The eruption of Mayon Volcano has severely affected the mental and physical well-being of over 22,000 students in Albay, who were compelled to evacuate their homes, according to an announcement by Save the Children Philippines on June 24, 2023.
At least 628 displaced persons have fallen ill in evacuation centers following the eruption of the Mayon Volcano in the Philippines, according to a report released by the National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Council.
After increased unrest detected since June 5, the activity at Mayon volcano in the Philippines increased further on June 11 with lava flowing from the summit crater.
The Mayon volcano in the province of Albay, Bicol Region, central Philippines, is showing signs of increased activity since June 5, 2023, when the Alert Level was raised to 2. On June 8, the Alert Level was raised to 3, prompting authorities to issue evacuation orders for all residents living within a 6 km (6 miles) radius of the crater — about 17 000 people. Another 40 000 people will have to evacuate if the Alert Level is raised to 4.
The Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (PHIVOLCS) raised the Alert Level for the Mayon volcano from Level 1 to Level 2 on June 5, 2023, indicating increased volcanic unrest that may potentially precede hazardous eruptions.
PHIVOLCS raised the Alert Level for Mayon volcano from 1 to 2 on October 7, 2022. The current unrest is driven by shallow magmatic processes that could eventually lead to phreatic eruptions or even precede hazardous magmatic eruption.
