The earthquake’s epicentre was located approximately 90 kilometres east of Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky, at nearly 50 kilometres (about 30 miles) beneath the ocean’s surface. The quake’s significant depth and magnitude have raised concerns about potential tsunami waves affecting coastal areas near the epicentre.
