On June 21, 2026 at 19:05 UTC, a magnitude 3.4 intermediate depth earthquake struck 69 km SSE of Kokhanok, Alaska, at a depth of 127.8 km and coordinates 58.8480°, -154.3860°.

Physical scale: An earthquake of magnitude 3.4 releases seismic energy equivalent to roughly 1.9 metric tons of TNT. Empirical fault-scaling laws (Wells & Coppersmith, 1994) estimate the subsurface rupture length at approximately 134 m — a useful intuition for the size of the slip patch on the fault.
