A magnitude 5.96 earthquake struck 13 km from Hawaii’s Kona coast, becoming the strongest jolt in an active 27-event swarm and approaching the intensity of the destructive 2006 M6.7 temblor.
A shallow M6.0 earthquake strikes Hawaii’s Kona coast at 16km depth, intensifying a week-long swarm of 27 tremors. What the shaking means for Big Island residents.
A magnitude 5.9 earthquake struck Hawaii’s Big Island as the climax of a week-long swarm of 27 tremors, rattling the Kona coast and raising concerns about volcanic instability beneath Mauna Loa and Kilauea.
A magnitude 5.4 earthquake struck 160 km west of Lata, Solomon Islands, at a shallow depth of 10 km, serving as a reminder of the region’s volatile subduction zone near the site of the deadly 2013 M8.0 earthquake.
A shallow magnitude 5.1 earthquake struck just 26 kilometers from Liuzhou, China, with its minimal 10-kilometer depth amplifying the potential for localized strong shaking across the densely populated industrial city.
A magnitude 5.2 earthquake struck 36 km southeast of Syriam, Myanmar, at a shallow depth of 10 km on May 18, 2026. Here’s what the tremor tells us about the region’s complex tectonics.
A shallow magnitude 5.1 earthquake struck 296 km NW of Nagqu, China, at just 10km depth, occurring within 200km of three past magnitude-6 events that have rattled the Tibetan Plateau since 1986.
A magnitude 5.6 earthquake struck the remote Aleutian Islands on May 22, 2026, just 40 kilometers from the epicenter of a destructive M6.9 event in 2011, according to USGS data.
A shallow magnitude 5.7 earthquake struck 103 km southeast of Lorengau, Papua New Guinea, at just 10 km depth, increasing shaking risks for coastal communities despite its offshore location.
A magnitude 5.8 earthquake has struck just 13 kilometers from the epicenter of January’s devastating M7.4 quake in Indonesia’s Molucca Sea, intensifying concerns about the region’s violent aftershock sequence.
