Karachi Earthquake Tremors: 2.6 Magnitude Quake Shakes City

On Wednesday night, residents across Karachi felt light earthquake tremors. The quake, with a magnitude of 2.6 on the Richter scale, occurred at approximately 1:44 AM. People in Quaidabad, Malir, and surrounding neighbourhoods reported feeling the tremors.

The Seismological Centre reports that the earthquake occurred at a depth of 10 kilometres, with its epicentre located within a one-kilometre radius of Malir. Recently, Karachi has been experiencing low to moderate-grade earthquakes, which have raised concerns among residents.

Chief Meteorologist Ameer Haider explained that the seismic activity is linked to the Landhi Fault Line. “The seismic energy gathered at the Landhi Fault Line is being released through these quakes,” Haider stated. He reassured residents that the intensity of future tremors is expected to decrease gradually.

City officials confirmed that the mild tremors caused no damage to property or infrastructure. “These tremors are part of ongoing seismic activity along the city’s active fault lines,” an official said.

The Landhi Fault Region is one of two active fault lines in the Karachi area, with the other located near Thana Bola Khan. Experts note that the Landhi Fault Line has not historically produced any significant earthquakes.
