Per MAGMA Indonesia volcanic activity reports, Mount Semeru activity status is set at Level III (Alert). Seismic monitoring between 12:00 - 18:00 WIB on 30 September 2026 recorded 24 eruption earthquakes with 15-22 mm amplitude and 91-145 second duration.

Additionally, 3 collapse earthquakes (4-6 mm amplitude, 43-81 sec duration) and 4 emission earthquakes (4-6 mm amplitude, 53-102 sec duration) were detected.

PVMBG prohibits all activities in the southeast sector along Besuk Kobokan, within 13 km from the summit. Beyond this zone, public activities are forbidden within 500 m of river banks along Besuk Kobokan, due to risk of pyroclastic surges and lahars reaching up to 17 km from the crater.

During 2026, MAGMA Indonesia logged 4,870 volcanic eruptions across Indonesia. East Java's Mount Semeru recorded the highest activity with 1,893 eruptions.
