The volcano is located between the states of Morelos, Puebla and Mexico City. About 25 million people live within the volcano’s destruction radius.
In Mexico, the most dangerous volcano Popocatepetl became more active, and millions of people received a warning about the need to prepare for a possible evacuation. This was reported by CNN.
The volcano is located between the states of Morelos, Puebla and Mexico City. Ash from a volcano in the central part of the country caused flight delays in the state of Mexico. The state also suspended classes in 40 municipalities in the state of Puebla, five municipalities in the state of Mexico and seven in the state of Tlaxcala.
It is reported that approximately 25 million people live within the volcano’s destruction radius.
On Sunday, Mexico’s National Organization for Civil Protection (CNPC) raised its volcano alert level to phase 3 yellow and warned of increased volcanic activity and high-speed ash scattering in several nearby cities.
“In the case of Mexico City, there is a risk of ash fall. We are prepared for such a scenario and we know what to do. We remain prepared,” wrote Mexico City Mayor Claudia Sheinbaum.
It can be remembered that due to the ash emission from this volcano, people were evacuated in mid-April this year.
Earlier it was reported that in Indonesia, on the island of Java, the Merapi volcano erupted, throwing a column of smoke up to seven kilometers high.
