The largest earthquake had a magnitude of 7.4, and occurred in the adjacent sea, the
Pacific Tsunami Warning Centre
(PTWC) reports that there is no longer a risk of tsunami waves on Russia's Kamchatka Peninsula, two days before on Sunday, July 20.
The United States Geological Survey (USGS) said the alert was issued earlier Sunday after the quakes were detected near the Russian Pacific coast.

USGS' tectonic summary of the earthquakes
USGS' tectonic summary from its website states cause of earthquake as:
The July 20, 2025, M7.4 earthquake east of Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky, Russia, occurred as the result of
reverse faulting
at a depth of about 20 km. At the location of this earthquake, the Pacific plate is moving west-northwest with respect to the North America plate at about 77 mm/yr. Note, the North American plate extends westward beyond the North American continent. The earthquake's location and sense of motion is consistent with the faulting on the subduction zone plate interface of the Kuril-Kamchatka Arc.
While commonly plotted as points on maps, earthquakes of this size are more appropriately described as slip over a larger fault area. Reverse faulting events of the size of the July 20, 2025, earthquake are typically about 60 km by 35 km in size (length x width).
The Kuril-Kamchatka arc has frequent moderate-to-large earthquakes and has hosted 29 additional M 6.5+ events within 250 km of the July 20, 2025, earthquake over the preceding century. The July 20, 2025, earthquake is located roughly 73 km northeast of the 1952 M 9.0
Kamchatka earthquake
, which resulted in a destructive, Pacific-wide tsunami.

New Delhi alert as Pakistan, Bangladesh agree on visa-free entry

New Delhi: Pakistan and Bangladesh have agreed to allow visa-free entry for each other's diplomats and official passport holders, a move that would be closely watched by New Delhi. The decision was announced on Wednesday after a high-level meeting in Dhaka between Pakistan's Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi and Bangladesh's Home Affairs Adviser Jahangir Alam Chowdhury. "A significant breakthrough was achieved on the facilitation of visa-free entry for holders of diplomatic and official passports, and both countries reached a principled agreement on this matter," the Pakistan interior ministry said in a statement, though no date has been given for when the visa-free system will be launched.

A delegation from Bangladesh is expected to visit Pakistan's National Police Academy in Islamabad soon.

"Your visit is of great significance for strengthening bilateral relations between our two countries," he said, according to the Pakistani government statement. Pakistan-Bangladesh ties that remained lukewarm under Sheikh Hasina's rule got a major boost ever since the interim regime came to power in Dhaka with several engagements between the two military establishments and a sudden spurt in bilateral trade.
