Sto. Domingo Mayor Joseling Aguas Jr. said the residents volunteered to seek shelter at the evacuation centers due to fear of the previous eruptions when the Mayon’s pyroclastic materials reached the 8-km extended danger zone.
The town started evacuating residents from the villages of Lidong, Fidel Surtida, Sta. Misericordia and San Fernando on June 12, after noticing the lava flow in Basud Gully of the volcano. As of Monday, 5,751 families were evacuated from the danger zone in the towns of Daraga, Camalig, Guinobatan, Malilipot and Sto. Domingo; and the cities of Ligao and Tabaco, the Albay Public Safety and Emergency Management Office said in a report.
