2026-11-10 08:34:07 UTC (52 min ago) · approx. 5:34 PM UTC+9 local
On November 10, 2026 at 08:34 UTC, a magnitude 5.0 shallow crustal earthquake struck 58 km NE of Fef, Indonesia, at a depth of 35.0 km and coordinates -0.4928°, 132.8590°. This earthquake was detected by 41 seismic stations with excellent location accuracy and was assigned a USGS significance rating of 385, placing it among routine seismic activity.
Physical scale: An earthquake of magnitude 5.0 releases seismic energy equivalent to roughly 477 metric tons of TNT. Empirical fault-scaling laws (Wells & Coppersmith, 1994) estimate the subsurface rupture length at approximately 1.7 km — a useful intuition for the size of the slip patch on the fault.
The epicenter is located in Indonesia, a region characterized by the convergence of the Indo-Australian, Eurasian, and Philippine Sea plates, forming the Sunda-Banda arc system. The nearest mapped fault system is the Sunda megathrust. View all earthquakes in Indonesia.
