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 6 km2 (2 square miles) as a first-order estimate. The length of the rupture zone thus was probably around 4 km (3 mi).[More info]Recorded aftershocks, latest first (0 quake)Oct 10, 2025 06:53 am (Yangon)43 minutes ago4.810 km0 km - This quakeBay of Bengal, 33 km S of Manaung Island, Rakhine State, MyanmarMain Shock (this quake)MoreMap of aftershocksPrevious quakes in the same area of this earthquakeThe earthquake occurred 18 weeks after a magnitude 4.9 earthquake had hit on Monday, Jun 9, 2025, at 09:44 am local time (Asia/Yangon GMT +6:30) in 94 km (58 mi) distance to the east:Mag. 4.9 earthquake 80 km southwest of Pyay - Bago Region, Myanmar - Jun 9, 2025 - The largest quake near the epicenter of this quake during the 10 years before was an event of magnitude 5.1.
