The latest quake follows an 8.8 magnitude earthquake near the Kamchatka coast on Wednesday, which sparked a Tsunami that triggered emergency declarations in both Russia and the U.S.

Russia's emergency services ministry has warned that smaller tsunami waves could hit three districts of the Kamchatka Peninsula.

The Russian govt said three areas near Kamchatka Peninsula are at risk of tsunami. While wave heights are expected to be low, it said it is unsafe to remain near the shore.
