Sunspot pair may have erupted with ’sympathetic solar flares,’ including an X-flare!

When sunspots erupt at nearly the same time, it could be something known ast “sympathetic solar flares.“ A double eruption from sunpots AR3614 and AR3615 on March 23, 2024 may be an example of it. One of the flares was an X1-class flare and was captured in multiple wavelengths by NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory.
