The eruption alert level of Sakurajima is "3", and the Japan Meteorological Agency says, "Beware of large volcanic stones and pyroclastic flows that scatter along the trajectory of the eruption within a range of approximately 2 km from the crater at the summit of Mt. Minamidake and the Showa crater. On the side, not only volcanic ash but also small volcanic blocks are swept away by the wind, so be careful. "
