Earthquakes in Kyrgyzstan — October 2025
1 earthquakes were recorded in Kyrgyzstan during October 2025, an average of 0.0 per day.
1 reached magnitude 4 or above and 1 reached magnitude 5 or above. The average focal depth was 10 km.
The month's largest event in Kyrgyzstan was a magnitude 5.4 earthquake near Kanysh-Kyya, Kyrgyzstan on 05 October 2025 at 20:28 UTC. A magnitude 5.4 earthquake radiates roughly 1,898 tons of TNT equivalent in seismic energy.
That is below the Kyrgyzstan monthly average of 2 events over the period we cover — a comparatively quiet month.
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 5 range.
That is 42% below the 2 events Kyrgyzstan averages per month across the 11 months on record.
This month also holds the strongest earthquake recorded in Kyrgyzstan in our entire catalogue.
