The latest quake follows an 8.8 magnitude earthquake near the Kamchatka coast on Wednesday, which sparked a Tsunami that triggered emergency declarations in both Russia and the U.S.

Russia's emergency services ministry has warned that smaller tsunami waves could hit three districts of the Kamchatka Peninsula.

A powerful 8.8‑magnitude earthquake struck off Russia’s Kamchatka Peninsula on July 29, 2025, the strongest quake in the region since 1952, triggering tsunami waves that swept through coastal areas of the Kuril Islands, Hokkaido, and prompted warnings across the Pacific, including Hawaii.
