Meanwhile, it also emitted at least 574 tonnes of sulfur dioxide as of July 11.

The PHIVOLCS said the volcano “edifice is inflated.”

The agency also advised that entry into the four kilometer radius permanent danger zone and entry without vigilance into the extended danger zone is prohibited.

It added that flying any aircraft close to the volcano is strictly not allowed as sudden steam-driven or phreatic eruptions may occur.—Richa Noriega/AOL, GMA News
