    The most powerful earthquake in recent decades occurred in New York, its magnitude was 4.8.

    According to the US Geological Survey, the earthquake occurred around 10:20 local time. Its epicenter was in New Jersey, about 80 km west of Manhattan.

    Immediately after the aftershocks, sirens sounded in the city, and notifications began sounding on smartphones for several minutes, advising residents, who were likely unaccustomed to such emergencies, to stay indoors.

    According to Sky News, tremors were felt in the city and surrounding areas. There have been no reports of destruction yet. In general, earthquakes occur rarely on the east coast of the country.

    A video also appeared online of how the earthquake momentarily interrupted a meeting of the UN Security Council.

    Residents reported an aftershock in the city, including American astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson, who wrote on the X network that it “lasted 20 seconds.”

    At the United Nations headquarters in New York, the tremors interrupted Save The Children chief Janti Soeripto as she briefed an emergency Security Council session on the threat of famine in Gaza and Israeli strikes that have killed aid workers.

    Charita Walcott, a resident of New York’s Bronx, said the quake “felt like a big boom,” adding:

    It was like being in a drum circle, this vibration.

    Earthquakes striking the northeastern United States are rare, although last February a magnitude 3.8 tremor hit Buffalo, New York, the strongest in 40 years.
