On 26 June 2026, 11:34 UTC, an earthquake of magnitude M6.5 was recorded in the region: 34 km WSW of Sarangani, Philippines.

  • Coordinates: 5.2392° N, 125.1965° E
  • Depth: 42 km
  • Number of “did you feel it” reports (USGS DYFI): 56 Moment tensor diagram (focal mechanism)

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 65° 73° -179°
2 334° 89° -17°

The data is preliminary (status: reviewed) and may be revised by USGS as additional information becomes available.
