A shallow magnitude 5.2 earthquake struck Tabonok, Cebu Province, with tremors felt across the region. GeoShake examines the tectonic forces behind the Philippines’ seismic activity.
A shallow magnitude 5.5 earthquake has struck near Uluru in Australia’s remote Northern Territory, producing widespread shaking across the sparsely populated Red Centre and marking the strongest event in the region since 2016.
A magnitude 5.5 earthquake struck just 4 kilometers from downtown Hualien City, Taiwan, nearly overlapping with the devastating 2024 M7.4 rupture zone and raising concerns about structural vulnerability in the densely populated coastal region.
A magnitude 6.0 earthquake struck 90 km southeast of Sarangani, Philippines, just 7 km from a 2024 M6.7 epicenter, highlighting persistent seismic activity along the Philippine Trench at a depth of 99.6 km.
A shallow magnitude 5.1 earthquake struck 21 km SSE of Erciş, Turkey, just kilometers from the 2011 M7.1 Van earthquake epicenter, amid an ongoing seismic swarm of 33 tremors.
A shallow 5.2-magnitude earthquake strikes 13 km from the 2011 Van disaster epicenter, marking the strongest tremor in a week-long swarm of 32 quakes in eastern Turkey.
A magnitude 5.9 earthquake struck 111 km east-southeast of Bitung, Indonesia, at a depth of nearly 49 kilometers. Here’s what the depth means for shaking intensity and why this region remains one of Earth’s most active seismic zones.
A magnitude 5.8 earthquake struck 186 km beneath Afghanistan’s Hindu Kush region, just 9 km from the deadly 2023 M6.5 epicenter, highlighting ongoing seismic risks from the subducting Indian Plate.
A magnitude 5.5 earthquake struck just 49 km from Rasht, Tajikistan at a dangerously shallow depth of 10 km, significantly increasing potential damage to nearby communities in this seismically active region.
A magnitude 5.8 aftershock struck the Molucca Sea near Ternate, Indonesia, marking the 38th earthquake in just seven days following a powerful M7.8 mainshock.
