Today earthquake: A slight earthquake measuring 4.1 on the Richter scale hit the Assam district of Karbi Anglong on Tuesday morning, said the National Center for Seismology (NCS). The trembling occurred at 9:22 pm at a depth of 25 kilometers, with its epicenter located at 26.51 ° N latitude and 93.15 ° E. Although the earthquakes had a slight intensity, there were no immediate reports of damage to property or victims. The inhabitants of the district and the surrounding areas reportedly felt tremor that caused a short panic, but no permanent damage.
This seismic event follows a number of recent earthquakes in the region. On Monday, the Andaman Sea hit a slightly stronger 4.5 -kilometer earthquake at a depth of 10 kilometers, while on Sunday a similar tremor with the same size and depth was recorded. The northeastern region of India, including Assam, lies in a high seismic zone, which makes such tremor relatively frequent.
The NCS shared details of the Anglong Karbi earthquake in the X post and said: “EQ of M: 4.1, on: 08/07/2025 09:22:19, LAT: 26,51 N, Dlouhý: 93,15 E, depth: 25 km, Location: Karbi Anglong, Assam.” The authorities continue to carefully monitor the situation, although no further development or shocks have been reported.
Shallow earthquakes are more dangerous than a deeper country because of their greater release of energy closer to the surface of the Earth’s country, causing stronger soil trembling and increased damage to structures and victims, compared to deeper earthquakes that lose energy when traveling to the surface.
On Sunday morning, July 6, an earthquake of 3.5 hit Nepal, as stated by the National Center of Seismology (NCS). According to the NCS, there was an earthquake at 8:21 Indian standard times (ist).
It hit a depth of 10 kilometers to 27.70 n latitudes and 87.76 lengths.
NCS wrote: “EQ M: 3,5, on: 06/07/2025 08:21:30 ist, lat: 27,70 N, long: 87,76 E, depth: 10 km, location: Nepal.”
Nepal is highly susceptible to the earthquake because of its location on the convergent border where Indian and Eurasian tectonic plates collide. This collision creates tremendous pressure and stress that is released as an earthquake. Nepal is also located in the subduction zone, where the Indian board slips under the Eurasian plate, which further increases stress and tension.
