A shallow magnitude 4.6 earthquake was reported in the morning near Wonosari, Gunung Kidul Regency, Daerah Istimewa Yogyakarta, Indonesia.
According to Indonesia’s Meteorology, Climatology, and Geophysical Agency, the quake hit on Saturday, July 12th, 2025, at 10:25 am local time at a shallow depth of 26. 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.
