7.6 Earthquake tremors were felt in Caribbon C on Saturday evening at Southwest, North of Honduras and Cayman Island. The US Geological Survey gave this information. The USGS said that the earthquake, which came around the eastern time at 6:23 pm, was at a depth of 10 km. The USGS stated that it came due to “strike slip faulting in the shallow layer near the border between North America and the Caribbean plates.

Shortly after the earthquake, the U.S. The tsunami warning system has issued a tsunami warning for Puerto Rico and Virgin Islands. Both these places come in the American region. It is also said that sea level fluctuations and strong sea currents, beaches, ports and coastal water can pose a threat. The warning states whether the tsunami has arisen or not, the sea level reading is not yet available to confirm or evaluate it and the agency will update on getting more information.
