A 7.4 magnitude earthquake in Kamchatka has left the local population anxious.

According to the US Geological Survey, the epicenter of the earthquake is located 111 kilometers east of Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky, with a depth of 39.5 kilometers. This increases the risk of tsunami waves forming.

Tsunami warnings have been issued, especially along the Kamchatka coast. Authorities are urging citizens to stay away from the shore and to follow emergency plans.

In July, an 8.8 magnitude earthquake in the area caused significant tsunamis and evacuations in Japan. This new earthquake could herald a similar disaster.

The events in Kamchatka remind us of the destructive potential of natural disasters. It is crucial for everyone to remain vigilant and follow official announcements.
