People likely experienced weak shaking there. Several smaller towns and villages are located closer to the epicenter and might have experienced stronger shaking. In the capital of North Macedonia, Skopje, 109 km (68 mi) away from the epicenter, the earthquake was probably felt as very weak shaking.The following table shows some of the places that might have been affected (or not) by the shaking.DistancePlaceMax. shaking intensity(*)RegionCountry3 km (2 mi)NE of epicenterResen(pop: 16,500)III: WeakResenNorth Macedonia17 km (11 mi)W of epicenterOhrid(pop: 42,000)III: WeakOhridNorth Macedonia24 km (15 mi)NE of epicenterDemir Hisar(pop: 2,280)III: WeakDemir HisarNorth Macedonia29 km (18 mi)E of epicenterBitola(pop: 69,300)III: WeakBitolaNorth Macedonia29 km (18 mi)NW of epicenterStruga(pop: 37,400)III: WeakStrugaNorth Macedonia30 km (18 mi)NW of epicenterBelcista(pop: 2,800)III: WeakDebarcaNorth Macedonia34 km (21 mi)SW of epicenterPogradec(pop: 61,500)III: WeakQarku i KorcesAlbania35 km (22 mi)W of epicenterRajce(pop: 8,420)III: WeakBashkia Prrenjas, Qarku i ElbasanitAlbania40 km (25 mi)NW of epicenterLabunista(pop: 8,810)III: WeakMK.E6.7887118, StrugaNorth Macedonia40 km (25 mi)NE of epicenterTopolcani(pop: 2,770)III: WeakPrilepNorth Macedonia46 km (29 mi)NE of epicenterZitose(pop: 2,130)III: WeakDolneniNorth Macedonia47 km (29 mi)N of epicenterDrugovo(pop: 3,150)III: WeakOpstina KicevoNorth Macedonia47 km (29 mi)SE of epicenterFlorina(pop: 17,700)III: WeakWest MacedoniaGreece49 km (30 mi)S of epicenterBilisht(pop: 7,110)III: WeakBashkia Devoll, Qarku i KorcesAlbania57 km (36 mi)W of epicenterLibrazhd-Qender(pop: 12,700)III: WeakBashkia Librazhd, Qarku i ElbasanitAlbania60 km (37 mi)N of epicenterZajas(pop: 12,200)III: WeakOpstina KicevoNorth Macedonia80 km (50 mi)N of epicenterDolna Banjica(pop: 10,100)II: Very weakGostivarNorth Macedonia81 km (51 mi)N of epicenterGostivar(pop: 51,000)II: Very weakGostivarNorth Macedonia84 km (52 mi)SE of epicenterPtolemaida(pop: 30,000)II: Very weakNomos Kozanis, West MacedoniaGreece86 km (53 mi)N of epicenterCegrane(pop: 12,500)II: Very weakGostivarNorth Macedonia91 km (56 mi)N of epicenterNegotino(pop: 17,500)II: Very weakOpstina VrapcisteNorth Macedonia93 km (58 mi)E of epicenterEdessa(pop: 18,700)II: Very weakNomos Pellis, Central MacedoniaGreece94 km (58 mi)NE of epicenterKavadarci(pop: 38,800)II: Very weakKavadarciNorth Macedonia95 km (59 mi)N of epicenterBogovinje(pop: 15,200)II: Very weakBogovinjeNorth Macedonia97 km (60 mi)SW of epicenterBerat(pop: 46,900)II: Very weakQarku i BeratitAlbania97 km (60 mi)NE of epicenterVeles(pop: 57,900)II: Very weakVelesNorth Macedonia98 km (61 mi)N of epicenterKamenjane(pop: 15,400)II: Very weakBogovinjeNorth Macedonia100 km (62 mi)N of epicenterBrvenica(pop: 16,300)II: Very weakBrvenicaNorth Macedonia102 km (63 mi)N of epicenterZelino(pop: 25,400)II: Very weakOpstina ZelinoNorth Macedonia102 km (64 mi)NE of epicenterNegotino(pop: 19,500)II: Very weakNegotinoNorth Macedonia103 km (64 mi)W of epicenterTirana(pop: 418,500)II: Very weakBashkia Tirane, TiranaAlbania104 km (65 mi)NE of epicenterСтуденичани(pop: 18,200)II: Very weakOpstina StudenicaniNorth Macedonia105 km (65 mi)N of epicenterTetovo(pop: 63,200)II: Very weakTetovoNorth Macedonia107 km (66 mi)NE of epicenterKisela Voda(pop: 58,200)II: Very weakGrad SkopjeNorth Macedonia109 km (68 mi)N of epicenterSkopje(pop: 474,900)II: Very weakGrad SkopjeNorth Macedonia112 km (69 mi)N of epicenterCair(pop: 64,800)II: Very weakCair, Grad SkopjeNorth Macedonia112 km (70 mi)N of epicenterTearce(pop: 23,100)II: Very weakTearceNorth Macedonia113 km (70 mi)N of epicenterButel(pop: 36,200)II: Very weakGrad SkopjeNorth Macedonia125 km (78 mi)NE of epicenterShtip(pop: 48,300)II: Very weakOpstina StipNorth Macedonia132 km (82 mi)NE of epicenterKumanovo(pop: 75,100)II: Very weakKumanovoNorth MacedoniaNotes:(*) 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)Jul 30, 2025 12:21 am (Universal Time)4 minutes ago4.7126 km0 km - This quakeNorth Macedonia: AlbaniaMain 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 517 quakes on average per year in the area near the epicenter of this quake (within 100 km/61 mi):Mag. 6 or higher: 0.06 quakes per year (or 1 quake every 15.6 years)Mag. 5 or higher: 0.44 quakes per year (or 1 quake every 2.3 years)Mag. 4 or higher: 7.7 quakes per yearMag. 3 or higher: 44 quakes per year (or 3.6 quakes per month)Mag. 2 or higher: 350 quakes per year (or 29.1 quakes per month)Mag. 1 or higher: 510 quakes per year (or 42 quakes per month)The area where this quake occurred has a high level of seismic activity. It has had at least 8 quakes above magnitude 6 since 1900, which suggests that larger earthquakes of this size occur infrequently, probably on average approximately every 15 to 20 years.Number of quakes per yearPrevious quakes in the same area of this earthquake
