Earthquakes in Russia — November 2026
1 earthquakes were recorded in Russia during November 2026, an average of 0.0 per day.
1 reached magnitude 4 or above and 0 reached magnitude 5 or above. The average focal depth was 10 km.
The month's largest event in Russia was a magnitude 4.6 earthquake near Kuril’sk, Russia on 02 November 2026 at 04:45 UTC. A magnitude 4.6 earthquake radiates roughly 120 tons of TNT equivalent in seismic energy.
That is below the Russia monthly average of 82 events over the period we cover — a comparatively quiet month, and down from the 49 recorded the previous 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 4 range.
That is 99% below the 82 events Russia averages per month across the 24 months on record.
