According to the Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (PHIVOLCS), Kanlaon Volcano remains under Alert Level 2 following its recent volcanic activity.
The public is advised to avoid entering the four-kilometer Permanent Danger Zone (PDZ) surrounding the volcano due to the risk of sudden ash emissions, volcanic tremors, and other possible eruptive activities.
PHIVOLCS recorded 12 ash emission events lasting between four and 101 minutes. The agency also logged 18 volcanic earthquakes, including 11 volcanic tremors that lasted from three to 101 minutes.
In addition, the volcano emitted 979 tons of sulfur dioxide per day on June 15, 2026. A moderate plume of steam and gas reaching a height of 700 meters was also observed drifting toward the west-southwest.
Furthermore, ground deformation or swelling of the volcano was detected, indicating the movement of magma beneath the surface.
