Looks like mealy bugs. Treat with insecticidal soap or neem oil. Isolate the plant. Mealy bugs quickly spreads. It takes a few applications and could take weeks to get rid of them if they are allowed to colonize.

definitely take the other persons advice but also isolate it from your other plants. mealys can travel through the air in their early life stages and can easily crawl to your nearby plants

what’s helped me in the past is to put the infected plant in a separate room and dab the bugs with a diluted mixture of rubbing alcohol. i’ve used a cotton swab before and that seems to work well

Alcohol will kill the ones you see. It won’t kill the eggs in the soil. You still need to take additional measures. Eggs hatch as fast as one day.

Consider repotting with new soil, throw the infected soil away.
