Virkniyfirlit:
A strong earthquake swarm began yesterday evening (13 June) in the northwestern part of the Bárðarbunga caldera. Approximately 400 earthquakes have been detected since the swarm began, with the largest reaching magnitude 4.8 at 20:14 13 June. Earthquake activity was most intense until around 03:00, after which it began to decrease, though earthquakes are still being detected in the area. It is too early to determine whether the swarm is subsiding. Last time an earthquake swarm similar to this one occurred in Bárðarbunga caldera was in January 2025. Given the current uncertainty on the evolution of the event, the aviation color code is kept at yellow. The situation will be reassessed regularly and any changes will be reported.
