1. Mt. Ambae volcano erupted on 27 November in Ambae Island of Vanuatu. Twelve to fifteen villages with a total population of about 5,000 have been affected. No casualties have been reported. There are no damages to houses except that they are covered with ash. Although people are still living in their homes, ash could affect their respiratory system and contaminate the source of water supply. Food crops have also been covered with ash. They have crops to last for only one to two weeks.
2. Ambae has a crater lake. There is a risk that the volcano could further erupt and cause flooding in the valleys. The Government may need to evacuate about 5,000 people in the high-risk area. The National Disaster Management Office (NDMO) is working on an evacuation plan.
