These volcanic-tectonic tremors result from the grinding of rocks, indicating the potential for increased volcanic activity that may precede an eruption.

Kanlaon Volcano remains under Alert Level 2 at present.

Residents have been advised by PHIVOLCS to avoid venturing within the four-kilometer radius Permanent Danger Zone (PDZ) and to stay vigilant for any volcanic activity.

Pilots are also warned to avoid flying over the volcano to prevent any possible hazards.
