A massive magnitude 8.8 megathrust earthquake struck off the coast of Kamchatka, Russia, resulting from the subduction of the Pacific Plate beneath the Okhotsk Plate along the Kuril-Kamchatka Trench. As the largest earthquake globally in 2025, its shallow depth generated tsunami waves, prompting warnings across the Pacific, including Russia, Japan, and Hawaii.| Geology In
