According to the Main Centre for Special Monitoring of the National Seismic Observation System, seismologists recorded at least five earthquakes over the course of several hours, the strongest of which reached a magnitude of 4.2.<\/p>\n<p>Seismic activity began at dawn and continued throughout the morning. The epicentres of the natural disturbances were located in the Black Sea, between 7 and 13 kilometres from the coastline, mainly to the south-west of Sevastopol. The depth of the seismic sources ranged from 10 to 25 kilometres below the seabed.<\/p>\n<p>The sequence of the earthquakes is as follows: magnitude 3.7 \u2014 at 05:09 (epicentre 8 km from the coast, depth 24 km); magnitude 3.3 \u2014 at 05:27 (epicentre 13 km away, depth 16 km); magnitude 3.8 \u2014 at 06:14 (epicentre 7 km away, depth 25 km); magnitude 3.6 \u2014 at 07:11 (epicentre 13 km away, depth 19 km); magnitude 4.2 \u2014 the strongest tremor, recorded immediately off the coast of Crimea.<\/p>\n<p>According to seismologists\u00ab classification, tremors with a magnitude of over 3.0 are classified as \u00bbfelt\u00ab, whilst the strongest earthquake, with a magnitude of 4.2, is rated as \u00bbstrongly felt\u2019. Residents of coastal towns, notably Sevastopol, Yalta and Alupka, have reported on social media that the tremors were clearly noticeable inside buildings: windows rattled, chandeliers swayed, and some were woken by a distinct underground rumble.<\/p>\n<p>Despite the significant intensity of the tremors for this region, there have so far been no reports of damage to major infrastructure or casualties amongst the population. Seismic activity in the Crimean-Black Sea region is a natural process, however, scientists warn that the frequency of today\u2019s tremors indicates a significant release of tectonic stress beneath the seabed and requires constant monitoring by specialist monitoring centres.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u0423 \u0427\u043e\u0440\u043d\u043e\u043c\u0443
