Wait 5 sec.

An earthquake of magnitude 5.5 occurred only 9 minutes ago 125 km west of Labuan, Indonesia, Indonesia's Meteorology, Climatology, and Geophysical Agency reported.The quake hit at a shallow depth of 12. km beneath the epicenter near Labuan, Kabupaten Pandeglang, Banten, Indonesia, early morning on Wednesday, July 9th, 2025, at 6:50 am local time. The exact magnitude, epicenter, and depth of the quake might be revised within the next few hours or minutes as seismologists review data and refine their calculations, or as other agencies issue their report.Our monitoring service identified a second report from the European-Mediterranean Seismological Centre (EMSC) which listed the quake at magnitude 5.4. Other agencies reporting the same quake include the German Research Centre for Geosciences (GFZ) at magnitude 5.3, and the citizen-seismograph network of RaspberryShake at magnitude 5.3.Generally quakes of this magnitude are recorded by more than one agency and the results can vary, with subsequent reports that come in after the first one often showing more accuracy.Based on the preliminary seismic data, the quake should not have caused any significant damage, but was probably felt by many people as light vibration in the area of the epicenter. Weak shaking might have been felt in Labuan (pop. 33,600) located 125 km from the epicenter, and Bandar Lampung (pop. 1,166,100) 135 km away.VolcanoDiscovery will automatically update magnitude and depth if these change and follow up if other significant news about the quake become available.
