(UPDATE) TAAL Volcano in Batangas province has been showing an increase in seismic activity for the past few days, including sulfur dioxide (SO2) gas emission, the Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (Phivolcs) said on Friday, April 12.

Phivolcs Director Teresito Bacolcol said phreatic or steam-driven eruption at the volcano's main crater occurred in the early Friday morning or between 5:11 a.m. to 5:24 a.m. based on seismic, visual and infrasound records of the Taal Volcano Network.
