The Philippines' Mayon volcano continued releasing lava and rocks during the early hours of Tuesday, according to the Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (Phivolcs).

The agency reported that the volcano's eruption has now continued for 190 consecutive days. Throughout this period, Mayon has produced lava flows, pyroclastic density currents, and rockfalls, showing that volcanic activity remains ongoing.
