“The eruption gene­rated a greyish voluminous plume that rose approximately 4.5 kilometers above the vent before drifting to the southwest.;Large ballistic fragments were also observed to have been thrown around the crater within a few hundred meters and caused burning of vegetation near the volcano summit erupted early Tuesday,” ayon sa Philvolcs.
