The earthquake lasted for a minute and was produced by the Makilala-Malungon Fault which PHIVOLCS stated that could possibly produce a Magnitude 7.2 earthquake, with a possible Intensity VIII. [citation needed] Eight minutes after the mainshock a M w 3.5 aftershock followed which felt III.
However, PHIVOLCS said that it was a separate earthquake. [10] On August 2, 2024, two M ww 6.8 and 6.3 earthquakes occurred within the area of the 2023 sequence. [11] [12] The December 2 earthquake was described as the first major earthquake in the area since a doublet 7.1 and 7.5 earthquake that also produced a tsunami in 1992. [13]
The earthquake struck near Davao Oriental early on Thursday morning, August 12. PHIVOLCS earlier listed the earthquake as magnitude 7.3 at a depth of 69 kilometers, then revised its advisory to a magnitude 7.2 earthquake, which occurred at a depth of 50 kilometers. It later reverted to its original report of a magnitude 7.3 earthquake.
