PHIVOLCS also recorded the location of the quake, 09.19°N, 126.58°E – 041 km N 54° E of Bayabas (Surigao Del Sur), and the Depth of Focus (Km) is 015. There are no casualties that have been damage.

This is the usual scenario in the Philippines because we are under the Pacific Ring Of Fire where active and dormant volcanoes reside. The red dot represents the epicenter of the earthquake.
