Dear Collaborators,

Solar activity has been at moderate levels since the last message.
The target region NOAA 13712 produced two M1.6 flares today (at
07:54 and 10:42 UT, with the largest magnitude) and  more than ten
C-class flares. Note that another region NOAA 13711 (S11W54,
alpha/D-type) also produced an M1.4 flare at 19:57 UT today. The
target NOAA 13712 maintains a beta-gamma-delta/E-type configuration
and continues showing new magnetic flux emergence. The Major
Flare Watch campaign will continue, with M-class activities expected
and a good chance of a >M5 flare in the next few days.

The position of NOAA 13712 on June 17 at 19:30 UT is:

S26W10 (147", -435")
