The Luzon earthquake occurred on Monday, July 16, 1990, at 4:26 PM local time in the Philippines.

The earthquake produced a 125 km-long ground rupture that stretched from Dingalan, Aurora to Cuyapo, Nueva Ecija as a result of strike-slip movements along the Philippine Fault and the Digdig Fault within the Philippine Fault System.
