A magnitude 4.6 earthquake near Naga, Camarines Sur, Bicol, Philippines, was reported only 7 minutes ago by the Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (PHIVOLCS), considered the main national agency that monitors seismic activity in this part of the world. The earthquake occurred at a shallow depth of 10. km beneath the epicenter early morning on Monday, August 25th, 2025, at 3:29 am local time.
