A low-intensity earthquake was reported the afternoon of this Friday, April 10, 2026, drawing attention from social media users and seismic monitoring systems. According to the report, the intensity was classified as 'light,' with imperceptible effects in Mexico City, ruling out risks for the capital's population. Authorities urge public and private institutions to register their properties before May 5. Authorities and specialized platforms remain on alert for any updates. This type of movement, although common in seismic regions like the south of the country, is usually closely monitored by civil protection agencies to rule out any eventuality. In this context, the Government of Mexico, through the Secretariat of Security and Citizen Protection and the National Civil Protection Coordination, maintains the call for the First National Drill 2026. This exercise will take place next May 6 at 11:00 a.m., with the aim of strengthening a prevention culture and improving the response capacity in emergencies. The seismic alert system SASSLA reported through its official X account that the movement was registered in the Costa Sur region of Guerrero.
