A very shallow magnitude 3.5 earthquake was reported in the evening near Podgorica, Montenegro.According to the European-Mediterranean Seismological Centre (EMSC), the quake hit on Sunday, March 8th, 2026, at 9:08 pm local time at a very shallow depth of 7.20 km. Shallow earthquakes are felt more strongly than deeper ones as they are closer to the surface. The exact magnitude, epicenter, and depth of the quake might be revised within the next few hours or minutes as seismologists review data and refine their calculations, or as other agencies issue their report.A second report was later issued by The Aristotle University of Thessaloniki Geophysical Lab. (AUTH), which listed it as a magnitude 2.8 earthquake. A third agency, The Seismological Survey of…

Just 12 minutes ago, a 6.0-magnitude earthquake struck near Petropavlovsk-Kamchatskiy, Kamchatka, Russia. The tremor was recorded early morning on Monday, March 9th, 2026, at 4:08 am local time, at a moderately shallow depth of 49. km below the surface.The event was filed by the European-Mediterranean Seismological Centre (EMSC), the first seismological agency to report it.A second report was later issued by the citizen-seismograph network of RaspberryShake, which listed it as a magnitude 6.0 earthquake as well. Other agencies reporting the same quake include France's Réseau National de Surveillance Sismique (RéNaSS) at magnitude 5.9, and the German Research Centre for Geosciences (GFZ) at magnitude 5.9.Based on the preliminary seismic data, the quake should not have caused any significant damage, but was…
