Seismic Activity in Indonesia
Over the past 30 days, there have been 108 recorded earthquakes in this region. The largest recent earthquake was a magnitude 6.5 event near 34 km WSW of Sarangani, Philippines.

Over the past 30 days, Indonesia has recorded 108 earthquakes of magnitude 2.5 or greater in our tracker. 19 reached magnitude 5.0 or higher. 89 landed between M4.0 and M4.9. By depth: 76 shallow (<70 km), 30 intermediate (70–300 km), 2 deep-focus (>300 km). 51 of the epicenters were offshore. 24 events produced at least one felt report, totalling 209 citizen submissions to the USGS Did You Feel It? system. Cluster detection flagged 2 aftershock sequences; the largest contained 3 smaller events within 20 km and 72 hours of its mainshock. Focal depths ranged from 9.2 km to 529.0 km. All 108 solutions have been reviewed by a USGS seismologist.
