Two quakes above M6 - Argentina and Russia - within a few hours of each other, and almost 2 days after the strongest solar flare in 3 years, that caused a radio blackout in some regions:

When I look at USGS, then these two earthquakes were only 25 seconds apart. Then one in Russia at 2020-11-30 22:54:34 (UTC) and then one in Argentina at 22:54:59, according to USGS. One of the above time stamps in @itellsya's post has UTC +1, which might be the reason for the confusion.
