This is the recording of the ~09:30 UTC Southern Indian Ocean event from Kilima Mbogo, Kenya. The signal has had a highpass filter applied to it at 0.01 Hz, 0.05 Hz, 0.1 Hz & 0.2 Hz respectively. As can be seen the signal is very low frequency

Narrowing the location down the origin area appears to be in the region of the Comoros/Mayotte. A news article today suggests that the Mayotte swarm which began earlier this year may indeed be magmatic-related. Was this event a submarine volcanic eruption? lejournaldemayotte.yt/seismes-carte-

Confirmation of location places it near the Comoros. Arrival times from FOMA (Southern Madagascar) & KMBO (Kenya) are almost identical, with FOMA perhaps slightly closer (<1 minute prior arrival time) - sadly I cannot narrow down the arrival time any better for FOMA.

Closest easily available BRB seismic station is GE SBV in north Madagascar.

SBV, like the other stations, shows long monochromatic signal with ~17s period (mono-freq Rayleigh waves?). But filtered above 1Hz SBV (lower plot) also shows seismic(?) signals from repeating sources, with some ~50s apart. Maybe some large, shallow, oscillating volcanic source?
Assuming epicenters just east of Mayotte, high-frequency (lower trace) arrivals at SBV correspond well to P & S from at least 3 sources resembling tectonic earthquakes, & the long period wave train (upper trace) correspond to the set of Rayleigh surface waves from these sources.

So in other words some event, of uncertain type but perhaps volcanic in nature, caused three quakes in quick succession & generated an ultra-low-frequency signal which was detected around most of the world?

what other source could it be if not volcanic? why the question mark after volcanic and is there something else that could generate this someone mentioned submarine possibly

The source could be indirectly related to current or past volcanic activity, like a large slumping of the flank of an underwater slope or volcano, as happens in Hawaii: seismo.berkeley.edu/blog/2018/05/0

The only explanation for is to look at technologie the only object capable of ringing is a bell and bells are hollow ,the conclusion is therefore simple how improbable is seems hollow earth or an impartial hollow cave
