The Manila Trench, one of the most dangerous subduction zones in the world, is once again under the spotlight as experts warn of its potential to unleash a devastating megaquake reaching up to magnitude 9.5. Stretching along the western coast of the Philippines, this massive underwater fault has remained locked for centuries, allowing enormous tectonic stress to build beneath the region.
In this video, we explain what the Manila Trench is, why scientists consider it a serious earthquake threat, and how a major rupture could impact the Philippines and nearby countries. From powerful ground shaking to possible tsunamis, the consequences of a large quake could be catastrophic for coastal communities and critical infrastructure. We also break down what experts are saying, how earthquake risks are assessed, and why preparation and awareness are crucial.
