Tibet, October 21 (ANI): An earthquake of magnitude 4.0 struck Tibet on Tuesday, the National Center for Seismology (NCS) said.
The earthquake occurred at a shallow depth of 10km, making it susceptible to aftershocks.
In a post on X, the NCS said, "EQ of M: 4.0, On: 21/10/2025 20:29:44 IST, Lat: 28.84 N, Long: 85.55 E, Depth: 10 Km, Location: Tibet."
Earlier on October 7, another earthquake of magnitude 3.2 struck Tibet at a depth of 10km.
In a post on X, the NCS said, "EQ of M: 3.2, On: 06/10/2025 21:13:37 IST, Lat: 29.28 N, Long: 95.26 E, Depth: 10 Km, Location: Tibet."
Shallow earthquakes are generally more dangerous than deep earthquakes. This is because the seismic waves from shallow earthquakes have a shorter distance to travel to the surface, resulting in stronger ground shakin
