The land of the Philippines has once again trembled with the sharp tremors of the earthquake. A powerful earthquake has been felt in Central Philippines on Tuesday (September 30, 2025) at 10 pm as per local time. According to the US Geological Survey (USGS), the intensity of this powerful earthquake has been measured at 6.9.
At present, no information about any kind of damage or casualties has been revealed. But the local seismic department also issued a warning of mild fluctuations in sea level. In addition, the residents of Leyte, Sebu and Biliran Islands appealed to stay away from the beach and do not go to the shore.
The center of earthquake was 11 km deep from the earth
According to the USGS, the center of this powerful earthquake came at a depth of 11 kilometers under water in the city of Bohol province of the Philippines and it can cause heavy shocks in addition to the local tsunami. However, the Pacific Tsunami Warning Center has clarified that there is no threat of tsunami from this earthquake and no action is needed.
Philippines is located on Pacific Rings of Fire, earthquakes come daily
Almost everyday earthquake tremors are felt in the Philippines, as the Philippines is located on the Pacific Rings of Fire, which is a earthquake active area from Japan to South-East Asia and Pacific Ocean. However, USGS initially stated the intensity of the earthquake 7.0, but later reduced it to 6.9.
Earthquake tremors usually do not feel
Most of the earthquake tremors in the Philippines are so weak, which humans are usually not felt. But sometimes suddenly powerful and destructive earthquakes occur, due to which there is a possibility of destruction. However, despite having so much technology in today’s time, it is not possible to predict when and where the earthquake is coming from.
