A powerful earthquake with a magnitude of 7.5 has hit the Drake Passage, located between South America and Antarctica. The earthquake, which struck off the southern tip of South America, has raised initial concerns about a potential tsunami, especially for areas near Chile. However, authorities have since confirmed that there is no tsunami threat to Hawaii or other regions, including New Zealand. The earthquake has prompted temporary tsunami alerts, but these have been downgraded as further assessments were conducted. Reports indicate that while hazardous regional waves could occur, a significant tsunami risk has been ruled out.
