Nine Earthquakes Around The World in just 24 Hours

Luke 21:11 And great EARTHQUAKES shall be in divers places, and famines, and diseases; and fearful sights and great signs shall there be from heaven.

On Saturday, April 19, 2025, there was a significant surge in global seismic activity. Nine major earthquakes, each registering a magnitude of 5 or higher, struck various regions worldwide.

This dramatic increase in geophysical activity highlights the ongoing forces affecting the Earth’s crust. Alongside these significant events, hundreds of more minor tremors have been detected worldwide, underscoring the constant movement of tectonic plates beneath the Earth’s surface.

This article highlights significant earthquakes, their energy release, and areas of scientific interest due to increased seismic activity. In 24 hours, 48 earthquakes of magnitude four or greater, 148 quakes of magnitude 3, and 356 detected earthquakes of magnitude 2.0 or greater were detected, showing widespread tectonic movement.

The data illustrate the geological processes that continually reshape the Earth’s surface, highlighting its volatility and the need for ongoing seismic monitoring in vulnerable regions. The total seismic energy released during these events is estimated at 1.1 x 10¹⁴ Joules, equivalent to about 31.3 gigawatt-hours or over 26,947 tons of TNT—comparable to the power of 1.7 atomic bombs.

The release of immense energy from earthquakes highlights the powerful forces beneath the Earth’s crust and the risks associated with seismic activity. This emphasizes the need for robust infrastructure and disaster preparedness in earthquake-prone areas.

The strongest earthquake during this period struck Badakhshan, Afghanistan, on April 20, 2025, at 00:11 (GMT +8), with a magnitude of 5.7. Shortly before, a 5.2-magnitude quake hit near Tingo Maria, Huánuco, Peru, on April 19, 2025, at 06:56 (Lima time). Both events posed significant risks to local populations and infrastructure.

Recent earthquakes highlight the unpredictable nature of seismic hazards in vulnerable regions. A magnitude 5.1 earthquake occurred in the Central Mid-Atlantic Ridge on April 19, 2025, at 11:50 AM (GMT -2), and a magnitude 4.9 earthquake struck the Southern Mid-Atlantic Ridge on April 18, 2025, at 6:15 PM (GMT -7). 

These mid-ocean earthquakes reflect ongoing tectonic activity at divergent plate boundaries, where new crust forms. While they do not directly threaten human populations, they are essential for understanding Earth’s lithosphere and the processes of continental drift.

Recent earthquakes were felt in various regions. In Badakhshan, Afghanistan, 116 tremor reports were received. On April 18, 2025, Alaska experienced a magnitude 4.3 earthquake near the Kenai Peninsula, about 84 km west of Anchorage, with 51 reports. 

39 reports were prompted by a magnitude 4.6 earthquake west of Barbuda in the Caribbean. These events highlight how even mild earthquakes can cause concern and minor damage, keeping communities alert and prepared.

Additionally, a significant magnitude 5.9 earthquake struck the Celebes Sea, 96 km southwest of Surallah, Philippines, on April 20, 2025, at 00:11 (GMT +8).

The Philippines is located along the Pacific “Ring of Fire,” making it susceptible to significant earthquakes. This situation emphasizes the need for better earthquake preparedness and an early warning system to reduce impacts.

Recently, scientists noted a surge in seismic activity on Iceland’s Reykjanes Peninsula. Nearly 200 micro-earthquakes were recorded in the past 48 hours at depths of 4 to 5 kilometers, especially near Grindavik, north of Stora-Skogfell, and west of Keilir.

The Icelandic Meteorological Office reports high seismic activity near Sundhnúkur, raising concerns about possible magma movement beneath the surface. Ongoing monitoring is essential for detecting potential volcanic eruptions. 

Increased seismic activity has also been observed at Fagradalsfjall and the Krýsuvík system, indicating magma movement along dikes. Experts warn that magma buildup in deeper reservoirs could lead to larger earthquakes or volcanic eruptions. 

While no new magma intrusion has been confirmed, the situation remains fluid, emphasizing the need for continuous monitoring and public awareness of nature’s unpredictability.

Luke 21:11 And great earthquakes shall be in divers places, and famines, and diseases; and fearful sights and great signs shall there be from heaven.

Luke 21:25 And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring;

Luke 21:28 And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh.

Hosea 4:1 The LORD hath a controversy with the inhabitants of the land because there is no truth, nor mercy, nor knowledge of God in the land.

Hosea 4:2 By swearing, and lying, and killing, and stealing, and committing adultery, they break out, and blood toucheth blood.

Hosea 4:3 Therefore shall the land mourn, and everyone that dwelleth therein shall languish=lose or lack vitality; grow weak or feeble, with the beasts of the field, and with the fowls of heaven; yea, the fishes of the sea also shall be taken away.

Matthew 24:37 But as the days of Noah were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.

Matthew 24:38 For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark,

Matthew 24:39 And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
