🔍 Lahore Earthquake Tremors: Recent Seismic Activity in Pakistan
Pakistan has seen a string of low to moderate earthquakes recently:
June 30: 3.9-magnitude quake near Dera Ghazi Khan; 4.8-magnitude quake near Zhob, Balochistan.
Sunday: 5.5-magnitude earthquake in Musakhail, Balochistan injured five and damaged dozens of mud houses.
Karachi & Pasni: Low-intensity tremors were recorded last week.
Experts attribute this frequent seismic activity to Pakistan’s location on the boundary where the Indian and Eurasian tectonic plates meet — making the region naturally prone to earthquakes.
