The Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (PHIVOLCS) on Sunday reported continued lava effusion at the summit crater of Mayon Volcano, as its ongoing eruption entered its 153rd consecutive day.

In a post on X, PHIVOLCS shared sped-up camera footage showing lava being emitted from the volcano's summit crater at 2:54 a.m. and 3:20 a.m. on June 7.

According to the agency, the effusive eruption continues to generate incandescent lava flows, pyroclastic density currents (PDCs), locally known as "uson," and rockfalls.

Alert Level 3 remains in effect over Mayon Volcano, indicating a relatively high level of volcanic unrest.

The agency also reminded the public that entry into the 6-kilometer Permanent Danger Zone (PDZ) remains strictly prohibited due to the threat posed by ongoing volcanic activity.

Authorities continue to monitor the volcano and urged residents in affected areas to stay alert and follow official advisories.
