No threat to India following 8.8 magnitude earthquake off Russia
There is no tsunami threat to the Indian coast following the 8.8 magnitude earthquake off the East Coast of Kamchatka in Russia, the Indian Tsunami Early Warning Centre (ITEWC) here said on Wednesday (July 30, 2025). Tsunami LIVE updates "Based on pre-run model scenarios, there is no threat to India," the centre said in a bulletin issued in the morning. No further bulletins will be issued by ITEWC-INCOIS unless other information becomes available, it said. The ITEWC-Indian National Centre for Ocean Information Services (INCOIS) is located at Pragati Nagar here. One of the world's strongest earthquakes struck Russia's Far East early Wednesday, an 8.8-magnitude temblor that caused small tsunami waves in Japan and Alaska and prompted warnings for Hawaii, North and Central America and Pacific islands south toward New Zealand.

The agency under the Ministry of Earth Sciences (MoES) had also stated that the both the quakes had occurred at depths of 10 km each. Interestingly, the institute had also recorded two more earthquakes off the east coast of Kamchatka on July 20 at the depths of 10 km each with both occurring less than 30 minutes apart at 12.43 p.m. (6.5 magnitude)and 12.10 p.m. (7.2 magnitude). INCOIS had also recorded another earthquake (6.6 magnitude) off the Nicobar Islands in the Indian region at a depth of 42 km at 11 a.m. on Tuesday (July 29, 2025) and another one at the Macquarie island in the south-west Pacific Ocean between New Zealand and Antarctica region at a depth of 10 metres and magnitude of 6.5 on the Richter Scale.
