Indonesia’s Meteorology, Climatology, and Geophysical Agency reported a magnitude 4.8 quake in Indonesia near Bintuni, Teluk Bintuni Regency, West Papua, only 6 minutes ago. The earthquake hit around noon on Wednesday, April 23rd, 2025, at 12:24 pm local time at a shallow depth of 10. km. The exact magnitude, epicenter, and depth of the quake might be revised within the next few hours or minutes as seismologists review data and refine their calculations, or as other agencies issue their report.
Based on the preliminary seismic data, the quake should not have caused any significant damage, but was probably felt by many people as light vibration in the area of the epicenter.
Weak shaking might have been felt in Bintuni (pop. 24,700) located 58 km from the epicenter.
