A significant earthquake, registering a magnitude of 6, struck several regions in Pakistan, including Islamabad, Peshawar, Lahore, and other cities. The tremors were widely felt across various areas in Punjab, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, and Azad Jammu and Kashmir (AJK).

Details and Reactions to the Seismic Event

The Pakistan Meteorological Department (PMD) identified the earthquake’s epicentre in the Hindu Kush region of Afghanistan, with a depth of 213 kilometres. The quake also affected additional cities such as Sargodha, Khushab, Mandi Bahauddin, Bhakkar in Punjab and various AJK and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa locations. The incident prompted immediate reactions, with individuals like Saeed Ur Rehman from Lahore describing their urgent evacuation from buildings. This event underlines the seismic activity in South Asia, largely attributed to the collision between the Indian and Eurasian tectonic plates, emphasizing the need for robust disaster preparedness and mitigation measures.
