In the early morning hours, two earthquakes hit a slight intensity – one in the Dhubri district in Assam and the other on the northern island of New Zealand.
An earthquake measuring 2.8 on the Richter scale hit the DHUBRI district in the early hours of Thursday, August 14, said the National Center for Seismology (NCS).
Another earthquake of 4.9 on Wednesday, August 13, rattled the lower northern island of New Zealand, while the country’s geological agency evaluated the impact as mild.
Assam earthquake
According to the NCS, it was trembling at 1:01 in the morning, at a depth of 10 km, with an epicenter located at 26.28 ° N latitudes and 89.87 ° E.
“EQ M: 2,8, on: 14/08/2025 01:01:18 ist, lat: 26,28 N, Long: 89,87 E, depth: 10 km, location: DHUBRI, ASSAM,” wrote NCS in the paper on X.
New Zealand earthquake
An earthquake in New Zealand occurred in the early hours of the Wednesday 13th August. There is no report of any damage due to the earthquake in New Zealand.
Geonet said the earthquake hit 20 km (12 miles) south of Hastings in the Hawke’s Bay area at a depth of 30 km (19 miles), without reporting about damage.
The earthquake, which occurred just before 18:00 local time, was widely felt by nearly 6,000 people who report on the Geonet website. The inhabitants in this area reported furniture and things that were shaking and fluctuating, according to New Zealand intelligence centers.
Hawkes Bay is one of the most successful New Zealand regions. The main earthquake in 1931 killed 256 people.
New Zealand, a home of 5 million people, sits on a “ring of fire”, an arch of seismic errors around the Pacific Ocean, where there are common earthquakes and volcanoes.
