00:38A powerful earthquake measuring 5.0 on the Richter scale struck the central
00:44coast of Peru on Thursday, February 26, 2026, causing tremors in the capital,
00:50Lima and surrounding provinces.
01:26According to the National Seismological Center, the earthquake occurred at approximately
01:306.21 p.m. local time, with its epicenter just south of the capital at a depth of 53 kilometers.
02:03The quake caused immediate alarm throughout the metropolitan area, with residents of high-rise
02:08buildings reporting, feeling the tremors and seeing lights sway.
02:12Oh, man.
02:22Oh, man.
02:24Oh, man.
02:29Oh, man.
02:31Oh, man.
02:46In several neighborhoods, homes and businesses were briefly evacuated as a precaution.
02:51While many describe the tremor as strong and sudden, the earthquake's depth appears to
02:56have mitigated its potential for destructive impact.
03:18Peru's civil defense agency immediately began assessing the impact following the earthquake.
03:23Initial reports indicate no injuries or significant structural damage to critical infrastructure.
03:49Local authorities reminded the public to remain calm and prepare earthquake emergency kits,
03:54given the area's location on the highly active Pacific Ring of Fire.
04:24Miner aftershocks were recorded later in the evening, including a magnitude 3.5.

04:31Seismologists continue to monitor the area, noting that while today's quake was strong enough
04:36to be felt by millions, it falls within the expected seismic activity along Peru's central
04:41coast.
