A moderately shallow magnitude 4.6 earthquake was reported early in the morning near Akutan, Aleutians East, Alaska, USA.
According to the United States Geological Survey, the quake struck on Monday, October 26th, 2026, at 3:38 am local time, at a moderately shallow depth of 22 miles. 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 reports.
A second report was later issued by the European-Mediterranean Seismological Centre (EMSC), which also listed it as a magnitude 4.6 earthquake.
Weak shaking might have been felt in Akutan (pop. 1000), located 51 miles from the epicenter; Unalaska (pop. 4,500), 63 miles away; and Dutch Harbor (pop. 4,400), 64 miles away.
VolcanoDiscovery will automatically update the magnitude and depth if they change and follow up if other significant news about the quake becomes available.
