On Wednesday evening a 8.8 magnitude earthquake, the sixth strongest ever recorded, struck off Russia’s Far Eastern Kamchatka Peninsula. The quake was the largest since the 2011 earthquake which led to the Fukushima nuclear reactor meltdown. Tsunami alerts were triggered for Japan and Hawaii, along with several Pacific islands, and a tsunami advisory was issued for the entire West Coast of the U.S.

“A tsunami with a height of 3-4 metres (10-13 feet) was recorded in parts of Kamchatka, Sergei Lebedev, regional minister for emergency situations said, urging people to move away from the shoreline of the peninsula,” Reuters said. “The U.S. Geological Survey said the earthquake was shallow at a depth of 19.3 km (12 miles), and was centred 126 km (80 miles) east-southeast of Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky, a city of 165,000 along the coast of Avacha Bay. It revised the magnitude up from 8.0 earlier.”
