On April 15, 2025, a 3.5 magnitude earthquake struck Tibet at 11:01 AM IST, with its epicenter located at latitude 28.90°N and longitude 87.67°E. Occurring at a shallow depth of 10 km, the tremor heightened concerns over potential surface damage and aftershocks. The region, part of a seismically active zone caused by the Indian and Eurasian plate collision, had already experienced a 4.1 magnitude quake a day earlier. Authorities are monitoring the situation closely, urging preparedness as experts warn that even minor quakes at shallow depths can trigger significant local impact. (PC: Reuters)
