The Kilometre cube neutrino telescope (KM3NeT) is a deep-sea neutrino telescope currently under construction in the Mediterranean Sea. Its main goals are the search for astrophysical sources of high energy cosmic neutrinos and the study of neutrino oscillation phenomena with atmospheric neutrinos. It is also a unique cabled marine observatory for sea science studies.

KM3NeT comprises giant 3D arrays of multi-PMT optical modules optimised to detect the Cherenkov light emitted by charged particles resulting from neutrino interactions in the vicinity of the detectors. With its two sites: ARCA (a 'sparse' km3-scale detector offshore from Sicily) and ORCA (a 'dense' 7 MTon detector offshore from the south of France), KM3NeT is sensitive to neutrino energies ranging from Mev to PeV.

In this talk the KM3NeT status and prospects are reported. The latest results including; atmospheric neutrino oscillations, tau appearance, neutrino mass ordering, searches for beyond standard model effects and the recent detection of an exceptional ultra-high energy cosmic neutrino are presented.
