People likely experienced light shaking there. In the capital of  Myanmar, Nay Pyi Taw, 125 km (78 mi) away from the epicenter, the earthquake was probably felt as weak shaking.The following table shows some of the places that might have been affected (or not) by the shaking.DistancePlaceMax. shaking intensity(*)RegionCountry33 km (20 mi)NW of epicenterTaungoo(pop: 106,900)IV: LightBago RegionMyanmar36 km (22 mi)SW of epicenterPyu(pop: 40,400)IV: LightTaungoo District, Bago RegionMyanmar87 km (54 mi)S of epicenterNyaunglebin(pop: 89,600)III: WeakBago District, Bago RegionMyanmar121 km (75 mi)NE of epicenterLoikaw(pop: 17,300)III: WeakKayah StateMyanmar121 km (75 mi)NW of epicenterPyinmana(pop: 97,400)III: WeakNay Pyi Taw (South), Nay Pyi TawMyanmar123 km (77 mi)W of epicenterPaungde(pop: 37,000)III: WeakPyay District, Bago RegionMyanmar125 km (78 mi)NW of epicenterNay Pyi Taw(pop: 925,000)III: WeakNay Pyi TawMyanmar141 km (88 mi)SW of epicenterLetpandan(pop: 38,900)III: WeakThayarwady District, Bago RegionMyanmar149 km (92 mi)W of epicenterMyanaung(pop: 42,300)II: Very weakHinthada, Ayeyarwady RegionMyanmar150 km (93 mi)SW of epicenterTharyarwady(pop: 54,400)II: Very weakThayarwady District, Bago RegionMyanmar151 km (94 mi)W of epicenterPyay(pop: 135,300)II: Very weakBago RegionMyanmar156 km (97 mi)S of epicenterBago(pop: 244,400)II: Very weakBago RegionMyanmar160 km (100 mi)S of epicenterThanatpin(pop: 38,100)II: Very weakBago District, Bago RegionMyanmar163 km (101 mi)S of epicenterKyaikto(pop: 48,700)II: Very weakThaton, Mon StateMyanmar167 km (104 mi)NW of epicenterMyaydo(pop: 57,900)II: Very weakThayet, Magway RegionMyanmar168 km (104 mi)NW of epicenterThayetmyo(pop: 98,200)II: Very weakThayet, Magway RegionMyanmar174 km (108 mi)SW of epicenterHinthada(pop: 134,900)II: Very weakAyeyarwady RegionMyanmar183 km (114 mi)NW of epicenterTaungdwingyi(pop: 70,100)II: Very weakMagway, Magway RegionMyanmar197 km (122 mi)N of epicenterYamethin(pop: 59,900)II: Very weakMandalay RegionMyanmar203 km (126 mi)S of epicenterKayan(pop: 40,300)II: Very weakYangon South, YangonMyanmar215 km (134 mi)S of epicenterThaton(pop: 123,700)II: Very weakMon StateMyanmar216 km (134 mi)SW of epicenterNyaungdon(pop: 40,100)II: Very weakMa-ubin, Ayeyarwady RegionMyanmar220 km (136 mi)S of epicenterThongwa(pop: 52,500)II: Very weakYangon South, YangonMyanmar220 km (137 mi)S of epicenterYangon(pop: 4,477,600)II: Very weakYangonMyanmar222 km (138 mi)S of epicenterSyriam(pop: 69,400)II: Very weakYangon South, YangonMyanmar230 km (143 mi)SE of epicenterHpa-An(pop: 50,000)II: Very weakKayin StateMyanmar230 km (143 mi)SE of epicenterHpa-An(pop: 50,000)II: Very weakKayin StateMyanmar233 km (145 mi)N of epicenterTaunggyi(pop: 160,100)II: Very weakShan StateMyanmar235 km (146 mi)S of epicenterKanbe(pop: 58,100)II: Very weakYangon South, YangonMyanmar237 km (147 mi)S of epicenterTwante(pop: 46,500)II: Very weakYangon South, YangonMyanmar240 km (149 mi)NW of epicenterMagway(pop: 97,000)II: Very weakMagway RegionMyanmar246 km (153 mi)SW of epicenterMaubin(pop: 51,500)II: Very weakMa-ubin, Ayeyarwady RegionMyanmar246 km (153 mi)NW of epicenterMinbu(pop: 57,300)II: Very weakMagway RegionMyanmar253 km (157 mi)N of epicenterMeiktila(pop: 177,400)II: Very weakMandalay RegionMyanmar268 km (167 mi)NW of epicenterYenangyaung(pop: 110,600)II: Very weakMagway, Magway RegionMyanmar270 km (168 mi)SE of epicenterMawlamyine(pop: 438,900)II: Very weakMon StateMyanmar272 km (169 mi)S of epicenterKyaiklat(pop: 52,400)II: Very weakPyapon, Ayeyarwady RegionMyanmar291 km (181 mi)S of epicenterPyapon(pop: 65,600)II: Very weakAyeyarwady RegionMyanmar297 km (185 mi)SW of epicenterPathein(pop: 237,100)II: Very weakAyeyarwady RegionMyanmar298 km (185 mi)SE of epicenterMudon(pop: 89,100)II: Very weakMawlamyine, Mon StateMyanmarNotes:(*) Shaking intensity according to the Modified Mercalli Intensity Scale (MMI) and estimated using seismic models.User-reports for this quakeThere are no user reports for this quake yet.If you felt it, be the first to report it!Compare Quake DataData for the same earthquake as reported by different agenciesThe more agencies report about the same quake and post similar data, the more confidence you can have in the data.

When aftershocks are detected, we will update this section.What are aftershocks?Larger earthquakes (above magnitude 5 or so) such as this one are usually followed by smaller ones known as aftershocks that occur in the same area during the days, weeks, months or even years after the main shock.[More info]What about this quake?Based on its magnitude, the fault that was active during the quake likely ruptured beneath a surface area of approximately 5 km2 (2 square miles) as a first-order estimate. The length of the rupture zone thus was probably around 4 km (2 mi).[More info]Recorded aftershocks, latest first (0 quake)Sep 28, 2025 12:55 am (Universal Time)7 minutes ago4.710 km0 km - This quakeMyanmar (Burma): MyanmarMain Shock (this quake)MoreMap of aftershocksEarthquake statisticsAverage number of earthquakesBased on data from the past 55 years and our earthquake archive back to 1900, there are about 108 quakes on average per year in the area near the epicenter of this quake (within 100 km/61 mi):Mag. 6 or higher: 0.03 quakes per year (or 1 quake every 31.3 years)Mag. 5 or higher: 0.28 quakes per year (or 1 quake every 3.5 years)Mag. 4 or higher: 8.6 quakes per yearMag. 3 or higher: 33.8 quakes per year (or 2.8 quakes per month)Mag. 2 or higher: 104 quakes per year (or 8.7 quakes per month)Mag. 1 or higher: 107 quakes per year (or 9 quakes per month)The area where this quake occurred has a high level of seismic activity. It has had at least 4 quakes above magnitude 6 since 1900, which suggests that larger earthquakes of this size occur infrequently, probably on average approximately every 30 to 35 years.Number of quakes per yearPrevious quakes in the same area of this earthquake
