Per MAGMA Indonesia volcanic activity reports, Mount Semeru status is set at Level III (Alert). Seismic monitoring on 11 June 2026 between 12:00-18:00 WIB recorded 19 eruption earthquakes (15-22 mm amplitude, 57-131 second duration).

Additionally: 3 exhalation earthquakes (4 mm amplitude, 33-42 second duration); 2 distant tectonic earthquakes (6-20 mm amplitude, 22-25s S-P interval, 74-116 second duration).

PVMBG prohibits all activity in the southeast sector along Besuk Kobokan up to 13 km from the summit. Outside this zone, no activity is permitted within 500 meters of Besuk Kobokan river banks, as pyroclastic flows and lahar may reach up to 17 km from the peak.
