Roughly Depth 110 Kilometer
Similarly, the earthquake vibrations were felt in “Parachinar, Lower Dir, South Waziristan, and Muzaffarabad, the capital of Azad Jammu and Kashmir”. At a depth of roughly (110) kilometers, the epicenter of the earthquake has been found in the Hindu Kush mountain range.
Thankfully, no reported deaths or property damage have been reported thus far. The public has been warned to stay vigilant for possible aftershocks, and authorities are keeping a close eye on the situation. However, no significant incidents resulting from these shocks have been reported.
Due mostly to tectonic activity in the Hindu Kush region, northern Pakistan has experienced a number of tremors in recent months, including this one. People have been asked to stay alert and avoid from any pointless activity.
Earlier on Tuesday, an earthquake rocked numerous cities in Pakistan, causing inhabitants to worry. Details indicate that several cities in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, such as “Abbottabad, Mansehra, Mingora, Chitral, Swat, Battagram, Malakand, Haripur, and Khanpur, as well as Islamabad and Rawalpindi”, experienced tremors. Many recited Kalma-e-Tayyaba as they fled their homes and workplaces in terror due to the tremors.
