Alaska, known for its natural beauty and seismic volatility, was rocked early Tuesday morning by a powerful undersea earthquake that triggered tsunami warnings across major coastal regions. The U.S. National Tsunami Warning Center (NTWC) issued urgent advisories after the 7.4 magnitude quake struck off the Aleutian Islands.
🕔 Time of Event: 4:12 AM (local)

Sirens blared across fishing towns and remote villages as emergency services coordinated rapid evacuations. Citizens in areas including Kodiak Island, Sand Point, and Cold Bay were told to move to higher ground immediately.
