The Office of Civil Defense orders the mandatory evacuation of all residents within Mt. Canlaon's
00:06
6-kilometer-radius Expanded Danger Zone.
00:09
It warns lahar hazards could impact 13 cities and municipalities across Negros Occidental,
00:14
endangering over 640,000 people.
00:18
Lahar flowed around midnight on Saturday, December 14, almost a week after Canlaon's
00:22
December 9 eruption signaled unrest again.
00:26
The order affects residents in the following cities, all identified as high-risk areas.
00:33
The OCD says an anticipated low-pressure area still outside the Philippine area could make
00:37
the situation worse with heavy rain, increasing the risk of volcanic debris flows.
00:43
Moises Padilla and La Castellana mayors say they've already activated local disaster response
00:48
teams.
00:49
Police and rescuers are now keeping an eye on rivers and streams to monitor mudflow.
00:54
So far, authorities are relieved the mudflows had not reached the roads, unlike the June
00:58
3 Canlaon eruption.
