Description
The LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA O4 run started on May the 24th. In order to improve the detector's sensitivity, the Virgo collaboration decided not to join the run since the beginning and it is continuing the commissioning of the interferometer. During the talk I will first present a summary of the observations made during the first months of the O4 run.
Then I will focus on the present status of the Virgo detector, the plan to join O4 and the preparatory works for O5.
