Powerful earthquake swarm off Fiji and Tonga – M6.0 and M6.6 quakes

Powerful earthquake swarm off Fiji and Tonga – M6.0 and M6.6 quakes
STRANGE SOUNDS




A strong earthquake swarm is currently hitting south from the Fiji islands and South-West from Tonga.

The swarm is taking place in the South Fiji Basin:The two largest, M6.0 and M6.6, occurred within seconds of each others (03:13:44 (UTC) and 03:13:51 (UTC), respectively).

They were followed by M5.5M5.5, (2023-04-28 03:34:10 (UTC) and 2023-04-28 03:51:06 (UTC), respectively) and hours later a M4.5 and a M4.8. Interesting is that the two M5.5 also occurred very close to each other…

Is an underwater volcano awakening?
