Overview
- Peru's geophysics agency logged a magnitude 3.7 quake off Ica after a run of small events this week.
- Earlier reports listed a 3.6 near Chilca in Lima and a 4.0 near Chala in Arequipa, both lightly felt with no damage.
- Mexico's seismic service reported a 4.1 quake northeast of Mapastepec, Chiapas, which did not trigger the national alert.
- Civil protection offices in Peru and Mexico reported no injuries or major structural damage and kept monitoring active.
- The countries sit on a tectonic hot zone where plates meet, so officials keep urging basic preparedness like emergency kits and drills.
