The Reunion: Possible Eruption of Piton de la Fournaise
On October 24, 2026, a seismic crisis was recorded on Saturday afternoon in La Réunion, and the prefecture indicated that magma was spreading toward the surface, raising fears of a near-future eruption of the Piton de la Fournaise. A few hours later, the prefecture judged a probable eruption in very short time, recalling that the volcano had already erupted twice at the beginning of the year. On October 26, the prefecture announced the partial reopening of the Piton de la Fournaise enclosure at 1:00 PM and the return of the ORSEC device to vigilance phase due to a drop in activity.
