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 10 km2 (4 square miles) as a first-order estimate. The length of the rupture zone thus was probably around 5 km (3 mi).[More info]Recorded aftershocks, latest first (0 quake)Jul 28, 2026 07:28 pm (Universal Time)37 minutes ago5.010 km0 km - This quake82 km SW of Kirakira, Solomon IslandsMain Shock (this quake)MoreMap of aftershocksPrevious quakes in the same area of this earthquakeThe earthquake occurred 11 days after a magnitude 5.1 earthquake had hit on Saturday, Jul 18, 2026, at 12:27 am local time (Pacific/Guadalcanal GMT +11) in 83 km (51 mi) distance to the northeast:Mag. 5.1 earthquake 16 km NW of Kirakira - Solomon Islands - Jul 18, 2026 -The largest quake near the epicenter of this quake during the 10 years before was an event of magnitude 7.7.
