Daraga: Local authorities in Daraga have ordered strict enforcement of the no-entry policy within the six-kilometer permanent danger zone (PDZ) after the Mayon Volcano's pyroclastic density current (PDC) along the Mi-isi Gully caused heavy ashfall in several towns in Albay. In an interview on Tuesday, Daraga Mayor Victor Perete emphasized that no human activity is allowed within the PDZ due to recent hazardous events in the Mi-isi channel.

According to Philippines News Agency, the Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (Phivolcs) has advised against human activities within the PDZ. Mayor Perete mentioned that inspections with Governor Noel Rosal and the Albay Public Safety and Emergency Management Office confirmed the area's dangers. Local officials plan to meet with barangay leaders to reinforce safety measures after volcanic materials filled a collapsed portion of the gully.

Albay Governor Noel Rosal described the Mi-isi area as a 'no man's land' due to potential sudden hazardous events. He stressed the importance of treating the area as closed, citing a recent event on May 2 as a reminder of the risks within the PDZ. Authorities are monitoring Mayon's activity closely and may expand the danger zone if necessary. The public is urged to comply with safety advisories amid ongoing volcanic activity.

The Department of Tourism in Bicol (DOT-5) has suspended volcano-related tours, including trekking, climbing, and close-proximity sightseeing around Mayon. Tourism stakeholders are advised to follow safety protocols, including providing face masks and ensuring access to safe, indoor shelter during ashfall events. Establishments are also instructed to post visible advisories with emergency contact numbers and evacuation procedures, and to coordinate with local government units to redirect tourists to safe zones and inform them of current risks.
