A tsunami advisory has been issued for the new quake.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The earthquake struck at 6:58 a.m. on Friday local time (2:58 p.m. ET Thursday) and was centered off the coast of Kamchatka Krai in Russia, according to the United States Geological Survey (<a href=\"https:\/\/earthquake.usgs.gov\/earthquakes\/eventpage\/at00t2ssp5\/executive\">USGS<\/a>). It struck at a depth of 10 km (6.2 mi).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The epicenter was located about 127.5 km (79 mi) from the Russian city of Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky, the USGS said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Pacific Tsunami Warning Center (PTWC) issued a tsunami advisory for the Russian coast near the epicenter, including Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky. The advisory warns of waves between 1 and 3 meters (3 to 10 feet) in the affected area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Authorities are assessing whether there is a broader threat across the Pacific, including the possibility of waves 1 to 3 feet high reaching Hawaii.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The quake follows a series of major tremors in the region, including a magnitude 8.8 earthquake in late July that caused a Pacific-wide tsunami. That event led to minor coastal flooding in Hawaii and noticeable but non-damaging sea fluctuations as far away as California, Ecuador, and Chile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The July earthquake and tsunami also caused significant damage in Russia\u2019s Kamchatka, where several buildings collapsed and industrial areas flooded.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Kamchatka sits on the so-called \u2018Pacific Ring of Fire\u2019, an arc of fault lines circling the Pacific Basin which is prone to large earthquakes. Volcanic eruptions also occur in the region.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A powerful magnitude 7.8 earthquake has struck off the east coast of Russia, in the same region where a major tremor hit in July and triggered a Pacific-wide tsunami alert, according to seismologists.
