“Phivolcs reminds the public that at Alert Level 2, sudden steam-driven or phreatic explosions, volcanic earthquakes, ashfall and lethal accumulations or expulsions of volcanic gas can occur and threaten areas within the Taal Volcano Island and along its coast,” Phivolcs warned.

“Local government units are advised to additionally assess previously evacuated areas within the seven-kilometer radius for damage and road accessibilities and to strengthen preparedness, contingency, and communication measures in case of renewed unrest,” Phivolcs added. Affected residents are also advised to observe precautions due to ground displacement across fissures, frequent ashfall and minor earthquakes.Responding to appeals for help, the Inquirer is extending its relief to the families affected by the recent eruption of Taal volcano.Inquirer Foundation Corp.
