A strong and shallow earthquake registered by the USGS as M6.0 hit Santa Cruz Islands, Solomon Islands at 12:04 UTC on November 25, 2021. The agency is reporting a depth of 39.9 km (24.8 miles). EMSC is reporting M6.0 at a depth of 30 km (18 miles).
The epicenter was located about 76 km (47 miles) E of Lata, Solomon Islands, and 533 km (330 miles) N of Luganville, Vanuatu.
There are about 20 000 people living within 100 km (62 miles).
7 000 people are estimated to have felt moderate shaking and 17 000 light.
The USGS issued a Green alert for shaking-related fatalities and economic losses. There is a low likelihood of casualties and damage.
Overall, the population in this region resides in structures that are vulnerable to earthquake shaking, though resistant structures exist. The predominant vulnerable building types are mud wall and informal (metal, timber, GI etc.) construction.

I monitor any earthquake, volcano or hurricane before it occurs anywhere in the world, and I know where it occurs, and I know its strength and where it is located on the level of the globe
And the hurricane knows where it begins, where it travels, and where it ends
When does a volcano become active and when does it subside?
I challenge on the ground in front of the largest scientific bodies in the world
So there is a device in my mind
Because before an earthquake occurs, vibrations are emitted from the earth’s interior, which go out to the atmosphere and descend to the earth in less than three seconds. I picked up these vibrations.
There is a device in my mind that sends those vibrations to him and he translates them and knows their strength and where they occur on the globe. This device was discovered by me since 1992. I was more certain when I was told that a devastating earthquake would strike Southeast Asia in 2004, known as the tsunami, as well as the Japanese earthquake that destroyed the Japanese Fukushima nuclear plant and cost Japan 100 Billion dollars in losses and many, many more
I hope to offer my services to East Asian countries, especially Japan, Indonesia, Solomon Islands or Brunei
