Abathathu abakhenkethi baseJamani kunye nesikhokelo sabo bakhenkethi bakwiiPhilippines babulewe izolo ngethuba kuqhushumbe intaba-mlilo kaMayon ebomini, kukhupha amatye amakhulu "amakhulu njengezimoto" kunye nelifu elikhulu lomlotha.
Olunye ukhenketho alukho kwaye kucingelwa ukuba lufile.
Abantu abangamashumi amabini anesixhenxe, kubandakanya ubuncinci abasithoba bamanye amazwe kunye nezikhokelo zabo, bachitha ubusuku bemise iinkampu kumathambeka wentaba bengamaqela amabini ngaphambi kokuba banduluke xa kuthi qheke ukusa kumgxobhozo wentaba-mlilo xa uqhushumbo ngequbuliso lwayiwisa intaba entle. malunga neekhilomitha ezingama-340 kumazantsi mpuma eManila, kwiphondo laseAlbay.
Isikhokelo uKenneth Jesalva uthe amatye "makhulu njengegumbi lokuhlala" kwehla imvula, ebulala kwaye enzakalisa amalungu eqela lakhe, abanye babo bekwimeko emaxongo. UJesalva uthe ubuye wabuyela kwinkampu esezantsi kwiimitha ezili-914 eyokucela uncedo.
Irhuluneli yephondo i-Albay u-Joey Salceda uthe wonke umntu osentabeni ubekwe ityala emini emaqanda, ngaphandle komnye umntu wasemzini.
Abantu abasibhozo benzakala, kwaye bathatyathwa besuswa entabeni ngehelikopta. USalceda uthe abanye babekwinkqubo yokwehliswa kwentaba. Amafu ash aye acanda phezu kwaloo mlilo, owawuzolile kwakusasa.
“Abonzakeleyo ngabaphambukeli bonke… abakwazi ukuhamba. Ukuba unokucinga, amatye alapho makhulu njengeemoto. Ezinye zazo zatyibilika zaza zaqengqeleka phantsi.
"Siza kuphinda sibuyele kwiqela lokuhlangula, kwaye siza kuphinda sibavuselele kwakhona," utshilo eLegazpi, ikomkhulu lephondo elisezantsi kwentaba.
Umkhweli weentaba wase-Austrian kunye nabaseSpain ababini bahlangulwe ngemivumbo emincinci, utshilo.
UMarti Calleja, omnye umqhubi wabakhenkethi balapha, uthe inkampani yakhe ibikhokela abanye abantu bamanye amazwe.
“Kwakunetha njengesihogo ngamatye. Kwenzeka ngesiquphe kwaye kwakungekho silumkiso, ”utshilo uCalleja ngomnxeba.
Iqela laqala ukubambeka malunga nesiqingatha sekhilomitha ngaphantsi komngxuma, wongeza uCalleja.
Uqhushumbo lwayizolo lwalungeyonto ingaqhelekanga kuMayon ophumleyo, utshilo uRenato Solidum, intloko yePhilippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology.
Le ntaba yeemitha ezingama-2,460 iqhume malunga namaxesha angama-40 kule minyaka ingama-400 idlulileyo.
Ngo-2010, amawaka-waka abahlali bafudukela kumakhaya okhuselo okwethutyana xa intaba-mlilo yakhupha uthuthu ukuya kwiikhilomitha ezisibhozo ukusuka kuloo mngxuma.
USolidum uthe akukho silumkiso saphakanyiswayo emva kogqabhuko-dubulo lwamva nje kwaye akukho kucwangciswa kokufuduka.
Ukunyuka akuvumelekanga xa isilumkiso siphezulu. Nangona kunjalo, uSolidum wathi nokuba kungakhange kubekho saziso siphakanyisiweyo, indawo ekufutshane nayo engqonge intaba-mlilo kufanele ukuba ibe yindawo engahambanga ngenxa yomngcipheko wokuqhuma ngequbuliso.
Ngaphandle kwemingcipheko, iMayon kunye necone yayo ekufutshane egqibeleleyo yeyona ndawo iyithandayo kubabukeli beentaba-mlilo. Uninzi lonwabela umboniso othile wasebusuku wobusuku bengqameko ekhanyiswe ngodaka oluhambayo.
I-volcano ine-trail eya kwi-crater ehamba, nangona inyukile kwaye ithe saa ngamatye kunye nenkunkuma evela kuqhushumbo oludlulileyo.
Abahlali kwiidolophu ezikufutshane nentaba-mlilo bothuswa ngumsebenzi wequbuliso.
"Ngequbuliso uninzi lwethu lwothuka," utshilo uJun Marana, umqhubi webhasi oneminyaka engama-46 kunye notata wababini. "Sithe xa siphuma sabona le kholamu inkulu ijonge esibhakabhakeni esiluhlaza."
UMarana uthe ikholamu yomlotha ichithakele emva kweyure, kodwa wathi akawasebenzisi amathuba akhe kwaye ukulungele ukushiya ikhaya lakhe.
