The month's largest event in Peru was a magnitude 5.6 earthquake near Callao, Peru on 15 June 2025 at 16:35 UTC. A magnitude 5.6 earthquake radiates roughly 3,788 tons of TNT equivalent in seismic energy.

30% of events here are shallow (under 70 km), 70% intermediate (70–300 km) and 0% deep-focus (over 300 km). A substantial share of intermediate-depth events points to a subducting slab beneath the region rather than purely crustal faulting.
By band, the catalogue holds 8 in the magnitude 4 range, 2 in the magnitude 5 range.
Activity peaked on 23 June, when 2 events were recorded.
