Country overviewOn August 7, 2025 at 08:07 UTC, a magnitude M1.5 earthquake occurred near 7 km NE of Puebla, B.C., MX (Mexico). With a focal depth of about 14 km, this was a shallow earthquake, whose shaking is usually felt more strongly at the surface. Events of this size typically go unnoticed.
The data is provided by USGS and cross-checked across seismological networks. Mexico: over the past 24 hours, QuakeMap24 logged 2 earthquakes, the strongest at M4.2.
Shallow quakes release energy near the surface — shaking is felt more strongly and damage potential is higher.
