quick translate (in blue my annotation) :

Rescuers have tried for eight days to find it: Establie Eric, who was found dead Monday in the canyons of Ardeche, drowned "5:20 after the beginning of his dive," October 3, while trying to avoid a landslide that had jammed.
The prosecution announced today.

Until the end, rescue workers kept the hope that Eric Establie was alive.

​

Noises heard on Saturday at the surface were left thinking that the caver struck on rocks, indicating that he was awaiting help.
Actually, Eric Establie was already dead.

​

The pre-valuation report of the dive computer (I am sure it's a liquivision X1 but I don't know which algorithm was installed) has allowed us to reconstruct the course of events. "Establie Eric went beyond the already explored part of the known part of the siphon, to 1.040 m from the entrance of the cave. His computer recorded an ascent to the surface of the hose or the existence of an air pocket, "says attorney of Privas, Christophe Raffin, in charge of the investigation." He then came back on his feet and landed before the landslide, "he tried to work around for two hours" without succzss .
At this point it would be death by "drowning or asphyxiation".
