M7.4 just struck the coast of the #Philippines at a depth of 58.1km according to the USGS.
The #earthquake shown occurred on the western margin of the Philippine Trench, where the Philippine oceanic plate begins its subduction beneath the Mindanao microplate.

An hour ago, a M6.9 struck the #Philippines at a depth of 10 km. This earthquake appears to be associated with the Philippine fault system. The USGS categorized it as very strong. So far, I have no information on casualties.

A new M7.8 struck again in Kamchatka minutes ago, near the M8.8. A few days ago, another earthquake struck this area. It appears to be an aftershock of the M8.8 earthquake. The tsunami advisory is in effect: tsunami.gov

A M8.7 struck Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky, #Russia, an hour ago (days ago M7.4 struck the same area). The #tsunami alert was issued for the nearby areas. It seems to be a megathrust #earthquake. These thrust quakes produce the most significant tsunamis. This subduction zone is well-known for big quakes

Minutes ago, a M7.4 struck Ushuaia, Argentina
The tsunami alert was issued, but minutes after was canceled.
Shetland Fracture Zone (?) activity was strike-slip, but since it's a reverse fault, it must be activity at the southernmost tip of the Chile Trench.

Today, a M7.7 struck #Myanmar with an aftershock M6.4. Depth: 10km
As a Structural-Earthquake Engineer, seeing this is desolate; there's a lot of buildings collapsed in Myanmar and vicinity like Thailand, where a building with 40 workers under construction collapses as well.

✅Both tectonic and magmatic components characterize this particular swarm.
➡️The magmatic nature of the swarm is emphasized over the volcanic nature, as the movement of magma occurs at depth, with the hypocentres situated below a depth of 5 km.
