Kanlaon Volcano, one of 24 active volcanoes in the Southeast Asian nation, erupted in December, prompting the evacuation of surrounding villages.
“An explosive eruption is currently occurring at the summit vent of Kanlaon Volcano that began at 5:51 am today,“ the Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology said in a statement.
Videos posted on social media showed a wide, billowing plume of smoke slowly stretching into the sky.
“Right now we are just monitoring which villages will be affected by the ashfall.”
The level three alert -- out of a scale of five -- put in place during December’s eruption remained unchanged.
In September, hundreds of nearby residents were evacuated after the volcano spurted thousands of tonnes of harmful gases in a single day.
