Earthquakes in Bosnia and Herzegovina

No events have been recorded in Bosnia and Herzegovina in the past 30 days, though the great majority are too small to be felt at the surface. Activity here is almost entirely crustal, which means shaking at the surface is strong relative to the magnitudes involved.

6 earthquakes have been recorded in Bosnia and Herzegovina in our catalogue, 0 of them in the past 30 days.

The average magnitude is 3.8 and the average focal depth 13 km. 4 events reached magnitude 4 or above, but none reached magnitude 5.

The strongest earthquake recorded in Bosnia and Herzegovina in this period was a magnitude 4.6 event near Livno, Bosnia and Herzegovina on 17 February 2026, at a depth of 27 km. A magnitude 4.6 earthquake radiates roughly 120 tons of TNT equivalent in seismic energy.

Locations recording the most events include Stolac (1), Livno (1), Vareš (1), Trebinje (1), Novi Travnik (1).

100% of events here are shallow (under 70 km), 0% intermediate (70–300 km) and 0% deep-focus (over 300 km). Almost everything here is crustal. That is characteristic of transform faulting or continental deformation rather than subduction — and it means shaking at the surface is strong for the magnitudes involved.

By band, the catalogue holds 1 in the magnitude 2 range, 1 in the magnitude 3 range, 4 in the magnitude 4 range.

No event in this record carries a USGS link to NOAA tsunami information.
