“MANILA, Philippines – Nine volcanic earthquakes were recorded by Taal Volcano’s seismic network during the past 24 hours, the Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (Phivolcs) said on Friday.

Phivolcs said the findings do not show an imminent eruption, but advised the public to strictly observe some safety precautions.”  Read more.
