A magnitude 6.3 earthquake struck Northern Qinghai, China, at a shallow depth of 10 km, producing strong local shaking across parts of this sparsely populated high‑altitude region. Shallow crustal earthquakes of this size can cause damage near the epicentre, though…
A magnitude 6.7 earthquake struck the island of Sulawesi, Indonesia, at a shallow depth of 10 km, generating strong local shaking and being widely felt across several peninsulas. Shallow events of this size have the potential to cause structural damage…
A magnitude 6.2 earthquake struck Mindanao, Philippines, at a depth of 106 km, producing moderate shaking across parts of the island. Because this was an intermediate‑depth event, the shaking was felt over a wide area but with reduced surface damage…
A magnitude 4.8 earthquake struck Iceland at a shallow depth of 10 km, producing light to moderate shaking near the epicentral area. No major impacts have been reported, but events of this size are common across Iceland’s active tectonic landscape.…
A magnitude 6.1 earthquake struck the Cuba Region at a shallow depth of 26 km, making it strong enough to be widely felt across parts of Cuba, Jamaica, and the Cayman Islands. No tsunami warnings or major damage reports have…
A magnitude 5.7 earthquake struck the Kepulauan Sangihe region of northern Indonesia at a depth of 35 km, a depth typical of subduction‑zone activity in the Molucca Sea. While no tsunami alerts or major damage reports have been issued, the…
A powerful magnitude 7.8 earthquake struck eastern Mindanao at a shallow depth of 45 km, making it one of the strongest seismic events to affect the Philippines in recent years. Shallow mega-thrust earthquakes of this size are capable of causing…
A magnitude 5.8 earthquake occurred in the Easter Island Region at a shallow depth of 10 km, a typical depth for intraplate seismic activity in the southeastern Pacific Ocean. While the event was far from populated areas and produced no…
A magnitude 5.6 earthquake struck Bhutan in the eastern Himalayas at a shallow depth of 10 km, producing noticeable shaking across parts of Bhutan, northeastern India, and southern Tibet. No major damage or injuries have been reported, but shallow Himalayan…
A magnitude 6.0 earthquake struck the Kuril Islands at a shallow depth of 5 km, producing strong but localised shaking in one of the world’s most active seismic regions. No tsunami warnings or major damage reports have been issued, but…
