Overview
- The National Geographic Institute confirmed a magnitude 4.1 earthquake at about 12:26 pm near the Enmedio Volcano between Tenerife and Gran Canaria at roughly 10 km depth.
- The tremor was widely felt across both islands in more than 100 population centres, including tourist areas such as Los Cristianos and Las Palmas.
- Authorities reported no significant damage or injuries following the quake.
- IGN and INVOLCAN said the event is not linked to the recent seismic swarms beneath Mount Teide and noted no indicators of an imminent eruption.
- Researchers are reconvening to assess the ongoing Teide tremor sequence and have asked municipalities to refresh emergency protocols, citing the Enmedio zone’s known seismic activity and a 1989 M5.3 precedent.
