A moderate seismic event measuring 4.9 magnitude was recorded near the East Coast of the Kamchatka Peninsula. The tremor occurred on February 4, 2026, at 00:23:27 UTC, characterizing a release of tectonic energy within the region's active seismic zone.
Monitoring data places the epicenter at approximately 54.00° North latitude and 160.00° East longitude. The earthquake originated at an estimated focal depth of 40.00 kilometers, indicating an intermediate-depth event associated with the complex subduction dynamics underlying the region.
Ambient conditions at the time of the event showed a temperature of -4.1°C near the epicenter. Sky conditions were reported as broken clouds, reflective of the typical cold and variable weather patterns prevalent along the remote Kamchatka coastline.
