On June 11, 2026 at 23:03 UTC, a magnitude 4.3 shallow crustal earthquake struck 66 km SSW of Katubao, Philippines, at a depth of 35.0 km and coordinates 5.3262°, 124.6238°.

Physical scale: An earthquake of magnitude 4.3 releases seismic energy equivalent to roughly 43 metric tons of TNT. Empirical fault-scaling laws (Wells & Coppersmith, 1994) estimate the subsurface rupture length at approximately 558 m — a useful intuition for the size of the slip patch on the fault.
