Nearly six days after a powerful magnitude 8.8 earthquake struck Russia’s Far Eastern Kamchatka coast, the country experienced another earthquake of 6.0 magnitude on Tuesday.
A July 30 earthquake of magnitude 8.8 off Russia’s Far Eastern Kamchatka coast triggered tsunami warnings across the Pacific Ocean and placed nations from Japan to the United States to Chile on high alert with millions urged to evacuate. The quake was also followed by an eruption of the most active volcano on the peninsula.
The triggers had damaged buildings and injured several people in the remote Russian region, while much of Japan’s eastern seaboard — devastated by a 9.0 magnitude earthquake and tsunami in 2011 — was ordered to evacuate, as were parts of Hawaii.
The massive 8.8 earthquake struck about 74 miles (119 kilometers) southeast of Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky city, on Russia’s Kamchatka Peninsula around 11:25 a.m. local time on July 30, according to the US Geological Survey (USGS).
