26 JANUARY 2018 - SANTO DOMINGO, ALBAY, PHILIPPINES: A temporary shelter in a field near Santo Domingo for people evacuated from the Mayon volcano. Mayon Volcano was relatively quiet Friday, but the number of evacuees swelled to nearly 80,000 as people left the side of the volcano in search of safety. There are nearly 12,000 evacuees in Santo Domingo, one of the most impacted communities on the volcano. The number of evacuees is impacting the availability of shelter space. Many people in Santo Domingo, on the north side of the volcano, are sleeping in huts made from bamboo and plastic sheeting. The Philippines is now preparing to house the volcano evacuees for up to three months. PHOTO BY JACK KURTZ
