A shallow magnitude 4.4 earthquake was reported early morning near Iloilo City, Iloilo, Western Visayas, Philippines.
According to the European-Mediterranean Seismological Centre (EMSC), the quake hit on Wednesday, October 15th, 2025, at 6:48 am local time at a shallow depth of 10. km. Shallow earthquakes are felt more strongly than deeper ones as they are closer to the surface. 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.
A second report was later issued by the Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (PHIVOLCS), which listed it as a magnitude 4.4 earthquake as well.
Based on the preliminary seismic data, the quake was probably felt by many people in the area of the epicenter. It should not have caused significant damage, other than objects falling from shelves, broken windows, etc.
In Guimbal (pop. 7,200) located 14 km from the epicenter, the quake should have been felt as light shaking.
Weak shaking might have been felt in Iloilo City (pop. 387,700) located 32 km from the epicenter, and Pulupandan (pop. 27,400) 53 km away.
Other towns or cities near the epicenter where the quake might have been felt as very weak shaking include Bago City (pop.
