Indonesia’s Meteorology, Climatology, and Geophysical Agency reported a magnitude 5.1 quake in Indonesia near Reuleuet, Pidie Jaya Regency, Nanggroe Aceh Darussalam Province, only 13 minutes ago. The earthquake hit early morning on Tuesday, October 28th, 2025, at 6:35 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 European-Mediterranean Seismological Centre (EMSC) which listed the quake at magnitude 5.0. Other agencies reporting the same quake include the citizen-seismograph network of RaspberryShake at magnitude 5.0, and the German Research Centre for Geosciences (GFZ) at magnitude 5.0.
Generally quakes of this magnitude are recorded by more than one agency and the results can vary, with subsequent reports that come in after the first one often showing more accuracy.
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 Reuleuet (pop. 40,400) located 46 km from the epicenter, Sigli (pop. 17,500) 57 km away, Bireun (pop. 47,700) 81 km
