Indonesia’s Meteorology, Climatology, and Geophysical Agency reported a magnitude 4.8 quake in Indonesia near Sabang, Kota Sabang, Nanggroe Aceh Darussalam Province, only 9 minutes ago. The earthquake hit in the morning on Sunday, July 6th, 2025, at 8:33 am 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.
Our monitoring service identified a second report from the citizen-seismograph network of RaspberryShake which listed the quake at magnitude 4.9.
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 Sabang (pop. 42,100) located 48 km from the epicenter, Banda Aceh (pop. 255,000) 82 km away, and Banda Aceh (pop. 255,000) 82 km away.
