Here is another article about the same event (in german) that has an aerial view supposedly showing the distribution of the craters over one of the islands:

(The craters filled with water, hence the dark color. The picture doesn't say anything about the craters' depth)
I don't know about the source though, so I guess it should be taken with a grain of salt.
