On 24 June 2026, 22:05 UTC, an earthquake of magnitude M7.5 was recorded in the region: 20 km ESE of Yumare, Venezuela.
- Coordinates: 10.5086° N, 68.5036° W
- Depth: 10 km
- Number of “did you feel it” reports (USGS DYFI): 732
The blue and white areas of the diagram show the directions of compression and extension during the rupture; the shape indicates the fault type (normal, reverse, or strike-slip). The solution yields two mathematically equivalent fault planes — which one is the actual rupture plane is usually unknown without additional geological context:
| Plane | Strike | Dip | Rake |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 355° | 86° | -16° |
| 2 | 86° | 74° | -176° |
The data is preliminary (status: reviewed) and may be revised by USGS as additional information becomes available.
