As authorities warn of potential future eruptions, Mount Kanlaon, one of the Philippines' most active volcanoes, has erupted, forcing widespread evacuations in the surrounding areas. On its volcanic activity scale, the Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology increased the alert level to 4 out of 5, indicating a "hazardous eruption" that poses serious hazards to local communities.
One of the most active volcanoes in the world, Kilauea in Hawaii, has erupted once more, enthralling scientists and passersby with its breathtaking spectacle. After weeks of increased seismic activity on the Big Island of Hawaii, the eruption started in December 2024. Massive plumes of volcanic gases, flaming orange flows, and lava fountains have changed the landscape and brought this natural spectacle to the attention of people all over the world.
