More than 27,000 people around the danger zone of Mount Mayon in the Philippines were evacuated, after ash and lava spilled out of the mountain.
Local authorities have set aside about 5.5 million pesos (around 135,000 Australian Dollars) worth of assistance for evacuees affected by the volcano.
Mayon, which has erupted 47 times since 1616, making it one of the world’s most active volcanoes, is a popular tourist destination for its symmetrical cone shape.
