Thousands flee as Philippine volcano erupts, spewing toxic gas

Evacuations are continuing in the Philippines as toxic volcanic gases fill the air near the capital, Manila.
An eruption at the Taal Volcano on Thursday has already forced thousands from their homes.
And officials are desperate to prevent evacuation centres from turning into coronavirus hotspots.
