Philippines raises alert level at most active volcano

Manila, June 5 (UNI) The Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology on Monday raised the alert level over the most active volcano on the southernmost tip of Luzon island due to "increasing unrest" that can lead to an eruption.

The institute raised the alarm for the 2,460-meter Mayon volcano in Albay province, approximately 500 km southeast of Manila, to the second level in a five-level warning system, meaning that current unrest driven by shallow magmatic processes could eventually "lead to phreatic eruptions or even precede hazardous magmatic eruption."
