Strong seismic tremors in Russia's Kuril Islands

A magnitude 6.0 earthquake struck the sea area around the Kuril Islands in eastern Russia today.

The earthquake was measured by the German Geosciences Center (GFZ).

The epicenter was at sea, while the depth was about 10 km, a typical depth that can make the shaking noticeable in coastal areas.

So far there are no reports of damage or casualties from this earthquake.

The Kuril Islands are a highly active seismic zone due to their position in the tectonic convergence zone between the Pacific and Eurasian plates, so tremors of magnitude 5-7 are common in the region. /CNA
