Kanlaon Volcano on Negros Island erupted moderately on Thursday morning, with the event ending at 7:36 a.m., according to the Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology.

The Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology confirmed that a moderately explosive eruption occurred at Kanlaon Volcano. The eruption ended around 7:36 a.m. on Thursday, July 9.

No immediate reports of casualties have emerged. An ash plume rose from the volcano and was visible as far as Iloilo City.

The volcano remains under Alert Level 2. This restricts entry into the four-kilometer permanent danger zone and nearby flights. PHIVOLCS continues monitoring seismic activity, sulfur dioxide emissions, and ground deformation.

This marks the latest in a series of similar eruptions at Kanlaon this year, following events in February, March, and May.
