🇬🇧 🇺🇸 The National Geographic Institute recorded a 4.1 magnitude earthquake near the Enmedio volcano at 12.26 pm Thursday, 26th of February, although this seismic behaviour ins not related to the recent activity in the Las cańadas caldera. This is because the Enmedio volcano is on a submerged fault line. Thousands of residents and tourists across Tenerife and Gran Canaria reported tremors that lasted approximately 10 seconds. However, no serious injuries or damage were reported. (El Confidencial, 2026)
