Earthquakes in the Kamchatka Peninsula, far eastern Russia
Map of earthquakes occurring in and around Russia since 1900. Most of this seismicity is in the Kamchatka area.
Many major earthquakes have occurred in the region of the Kamchatka Peninsula in far eastern Russia. Events in 1737, 1923 and 1952, were megathrust earthquakes and caused tsunamis.[1][2] There are many more earthquakes and tsunamis originating from the region.
