Lava flow from Mayon Volcano’s summit crater has reached an estimated 1.3 to 3.2 kilometers downslope of the Mi-isi, Bonga, and Basud Gullies, according to monitoring data released Saturday.

The Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (PHIVOLCS) said the continued effusion of lava indicates sustained volcanic activity, with incandescent lava advancing slowly but steadily along established channels.

Photos captured by the Mayon Volcano Observatory between 7:13 p.m. and 10:05 p.m. on 24 January 2026 showed visible lava flows moving down the upper slopes of the volcano.

Authorities continue to remind the public to stay out of the 6-kilometer Permanent Danger Zone (PDZ) due to the ongoing risk of lava collapse, rockfalls, and pyroclastic density currents.

Monitoring of Mayon remains intensified as activity persists.
