The Meteorological, Climatological, and Geophysical Agency of Indonesia (BMKG) recorded the earthquake as M6.4 while USGS and other agencies recorded it as M6.0. So far, only one aftershock has been recorded with M2.7. It hit 2 hours and 38 minutes after the mainshock.
At the moment, no unusual seismic activity has been observed, but in the last few days it has been concentrated to the west of the Ring of Fire, mainly in the region of Indonesia and the Kermadec Islands.
It is also significant that there has been no response in North America (Alaska, US West Coast and Mexico) after the M6.5 earthquake in Canada last September 15. For the moment there is a seismic silence for earthquakes greater than M5+.
In the past 24 hours, there were 921 quakes of magnitudes up to 6.0

●243 quakes between magnitude 2 and 3
●558 quakes below magnitude 2 that people normally don't feel.

In the past 24 hours, there were 804 quakes of magnitudes up to 5.3:
●2 quakes above magnitude 5

Finally an M5.3 earthquake occurred in southeastern Mexico, after the energy had been concentrated between El Salvador and Panama. Let's hope this earthquake is not a precursor of a larger event.

From 00:39 to 19:51 hours of September 26, 10 micro-earthquakes have been registered in Mexico City, which has unleashed concern among residents due to their intensity.
The last of the movements had its epicenter in the municipality of Miguel Hidalgo with a magnitude of 1.7; six other earthquakes were registered in the same district during the day, according to the National Seismological Service (SSN). Two more had their origin in the municipality of Benito Juárez and one in the municipality of Álvaro Obregón.
These phenomena, according to experts, are felt more strongly in certain places due to the high acceleration or displacement they cause, which can cause damage to real estate.
"You are at a fixed point and (the movement) displaces you, that displacement is called acceleration (...) The earthquakes that are being generated in Mexico City do not last as long compared to those coming from the coast, but these, for example, can displace a building a lot, although for less time. So the acceleration is higher," explained Alejandro Méndez, a UNAM geologist who works with neighbors of the Plateros-Mixcoac fault.
"The neighborhoods that are around (the epicenter) have extremely violent accelerations that compare with large earthquakes on the coast, but they don't last as long," he said.

In 2023-2024 there have been 137 micro earthquakes or low intensity earthquakes in Mexico City (CDMX), 52 so far this year and 85 last year, events that have mainly been recorded in four municipalities: Alvaro Obregón, Magdalena Contreras, Benito Juárez and Miguel Hidalgo, according to SSN. So far there's no reports of damage.
In the past 24 hours, there were 905 quakes of magnitudes up to 6.3:

The Mexican Republic experienced a very busy morning: in Mexico City (CDMX), ten micro-earthquakes were recorded; in addition, a 5.2 magnitude tremor was reported south of Guerrero, which was felt in some areas of the country's capital.
