On the afternoon of the same day, the volcano has begun to release ashes and dense fumes, which immediately spread throughout the area. Many citizens evacuated immediately together with their pets that they could only carry on their way out of the area. Despite this, there were still citizens who didn't want to leave the area because of their remaining properties, yet, authorities have not allowed them to remain in place for their security. Manila Philippines reported three evacuees, who died due to cardiac arrest, are obtained for the immediate response of their families.

The aftermath of the explosion is gruesomely unexpected. When the rescuers checked the area, they saw dead animals that the people couldn't save as well as the houses that had been covered with dense ashes. The people of the area have been devastated by the loss of their assets and livelihood. The once paradise-like tourist spot was now abandoned and covered with gray dust that the Taal volcano continuously spewed.

As of writing, the evacuees continue to stay in the evacuation centers beyond the 20-kilometer range. The duration is still unknown unless the government determines the safeness of their returns. The Phivolcs is continuously observing the condition of the volcano because of its possible eruption and continuous releasing of ashes.###
