Ash and smoke spewed from Popocatepetl Volcano as seen from Santiago Xalitxintla, in the Mexican central state of Puebla, on April 21, 2012. The Popocatepetl, outside the capital, rumbled continuously and spewed gases and glowing rocks to almost one kilometre beyond its crater, authorities said Friday. In an increase of activity the volcano registered "62 expulsions of medium intensity, with the emission of water vapor, gas, ashes and glowing rocks," between Thursday night and Friday, said a statement from the National Center of Disaster Prevention.
