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  Myanmar, Nay Pyi Taw, 299 km (186 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(*)RegionCountry30 km (19 mi)SW of epicenterKyaw(pop: 1,290)III: WeakGangaw, Magway RegionMyanmar53 km (33 mi)E of epicenterMonywa(pop: 182,000)III: WeakSagaing RegionMyanmar79 km (49 mi)SE of epicenterYesagyo(pop: 23,300)II: Very weakPakokku, Magway RegionMyanmar86 km (54 mi)SE of epicenterKyi(pop: 1,360)II: Very weakMyingyan, Mandalay RegionMyanmar92 km (57 mi)SE of epicenterPakokku(pop: 126,900)II: Very weakMagway RegionMyanmar98 km (61 mi)S of epicenterNyaung-U(pop: 48,500)II: Very weakMandalay RegionMyanmar102 km (63 mi)SE of epicenterMyingyan(pop: 141,700)II: Very weakMandalay RegionMyanmar116 km (72 mi)NE of epicenterYe-u(pop: 20,500)II: Very weakShwebo District, Sagaing RegionMyanmar124 km (77 mi)NW of epicenterHakha(pop: 20,000)II: Very weakChin StateMyanmar125 km (78 mi)NE of epicenterShwebo(pop: 88,900)II: Very weakSagaing RegionMyanmar128 km (80 mi)S of epicenterChauk(pop: 90,900)II: Very weakMagway, Magway RegionMyanmar140 km (87 mi)NW of epicenterKalemyo(pop: 348,600)II: Very weakKale, Sagaing RegionMyanmar141 km (88 mi)E of epicenterSagaing(pop: 78,700)II: Very weakSagaing RegionMyanmar143 km (89 mi)S of epicenterKyaukpadaung(pop: 42,800)II: Very weakNyaung-U, Mandalay RegionMyanmar148 km (92 mi)E of epicenterAmarapura(pop: 237,600)II: Very weakMandalay, Mandalay RegionMyanmar151 km (94 mi)E of epicenterMandalay(pop: 1,208,100)II: Very weakMandalay RegionMyanmar154 km (95 mi)E of epicenterMadaya(pop: 24,200)II: Very weakPyin Oo Lwin, Mandalay RegionMyanmar159 km (99 mi)NE of epicenterKanbalu(pop: 25,000)II: Very weakShwebo District, Sagaing RegionMyanmar163 km (101 mi)E of epicenterKyaukse(pop: 50,500)II: Very weakMandalay RegionMyanmar177 km (110 mi)S of epicenterYenangyaung(pop: 110,600)II: Very weakMagway, Magway RegionMyanmar179 km (111 mi)SE of epicenterWundwin(pop: 32,600)II: Very weakMeiktila District, Mandalay RegionMyanmar180 km (112 mi)N of epicenterMawlaik(pop: 44,500)II: Very weakSagaing RegionMyanmar182 km (113 mi)SE of epicenterMeiktila(pop: 177,400)II: Very weakMandalay RegionMyanmar189 km (117 mi)E of epicenterPyin Oo Lwin(pop: 117,300)II: Very weakMandalay RegionMyanmar208 km (130 mi)S of epicenterMinbu(pop: 57,300)II: Very weakMagway RegionMyanmar213 km (132 mi)S of epicenterMagway(pop: 97,000)II: Very weakMagway RegionMyanmar217 km (135 mi)NE of epicenterMogok(pop: 89,900)II: Very weakPyin Oo Lwin, Mandalay RegionMyanmar238 km (148 mi)SE of epicenterYamethin(pop: 59,900)II: Very weakMandalay RegionMyanmar244 km (152 mi)N of epicenterTamu(pop: 43,700)II: Very weakSagaing RegionMyanmar246 km (153 mi)SE of epicenterTaungdwingyi(pop: 70,100)II: Very weakMagway, Magway RegionMyanmar253 km (157 mi)SW of epicenterButhidaung Town(pop: 55,500)II: Very weakMaungdaw, Rakhine StateMyanmar255 km (158 mi)SE of epicenterKalaw(pop: 93,000)II: Very weakTaunggyi District, Shan StateMyanmar257 km (160 mi)S of epicenterAnn Town(pop: 119,700)II: Very weakKyaunkpyu, Rakhine StateMyanmar271 km (168 mi)SE of epicenterHeho(pop: 93,000)II: Very weakTaunggyi District, Shan StateMyanmar277 km (172 mi)SW of epicenterSittwe(pop: 177,700)II: Very weakRakhine StateMyanmar281 km (174 mi)NE of epicenterKyauktan(pop: 42,800)II: Very weakKatha, Sagaing RegionMyanmar284 km (177 mi)SE of epicenterYawnghwe(pop: 188,100)II: Very weakTaunggyi District, Shan StateMyanmar286 km (178 mi)SE of epicenterTaunggyi(pop: 160,100)II: Very weakShan StateMyanmar297 km (185 mi)N of epicenterTatkon(pop: 41,700)II: Very weakHkamti, Sagaing RegionMyanmar299 km (186 mi)SE of epicenterNay Pyi Taw(pop: 925,000)II: Very weakNay Pyi TawMyanmarNotes:(*) 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!Get the Android appCompare 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 25, 2026 08:44 am (Kolkata)25 minutes ago4.7126 km0 km - This quake53 km W of Monywa, Sagaing Region, MyanmarMain Shock (this quake)MoreMap of aftershocksEarthquake statisticsAverage number of earthquakesBased on data from the past 56 years and our earthquake archive back to 1900, there are about 18.7 quakes on average per year in the area near the epicenter of this quake (within 100 km/61 mi):Mag. 6 or higher: 0.02 quakes per year (or 1 quake every 41.7 years)Mag. 5 or higher: 0.5 quakes per year (or 1 quake every 2 years)Mag. 4 or higher: 10.7 quakes per yearMag. 3 or higher: 18.7 quakes per yearMag. 2 or higher: 18.9 quakes per yearThe area where this quake occurred has a high level of seismic activity. It has had at least 3 quakes above magnitude 6 since 1900, which suggests that larger earthquakes of this size occur infrequently, probably on average approximately every 40 to 45 years.Number of quakes per yearPrevious quakes in the same area of this earthquake
