A 6.3 magnitude earthquake hit Russia’s Kuril Islands at a 10 km, the fourth major quake in the region this month. 

Russia’s Far East is bracing for further seismic activity following a series of powerful tremors, including a 6.0 quake in Kamchatka on August 15 and a massive 8.8 quake on July 30 that set off a volcanic eruption. 

Seismologists caution that constant activity along the Pacific Ring of Fire keeps the area on high alert for potential earthquakes and volcanic events.

Authorities are monitoring the situation closely; no tsunami warning has been issued, but residents are urged to stay alert.
