NATURE’S WRATH – Thick, ash-laden smoke erupts from the mouth of Bulusan Volcano in Sorsogon province at around 11:40 a.m. on Sunday, June 5, 2022, prompting the Philippine Institute of Volcanology (Phivolcs) to raise Alert Level 1 in the area.

Bulusan Volcano in Sorsogon erupted on Sunday morning, June 5, 2022, sending a cloud of ashfall over adjacent towns. Government agencies have been placed on round-the-clock alert to brace for the after effects of the volcano’s eruption. The last time Bulusan erupted was in 2016.
The Philippines jumped from last place to 33rd spot in the latest Nikkei Asia Covid-19 recovery index, which measures 121 countries’ infection management, vaccine rollout, and social mobility.
And with the Covid-19 situation getting more manageable in the country, the Department of Health (DOH) warned the public about other common diseases, especially now that the wet season has started.
Meanwhile, the Office of the Ombudsman ordered the suspension of Anti-Red Tape Authority (ARTA) Director General Jeremiah Belgica and four other agency officials for six months for alleged graft charges.
