Tibet Jolted By 5.2 Magnitude Earthquake Days After Deadly Disaster

Date:

Tibet was shaken by another earthquake on Monday, just days after a devastating tremor claimed the lives of over 120 people in the region. The latest earthquake, measuring 5.2 on the Richter scale, struck at a depth of 10 kilometers, according to the National Center for Seismology (NCS).

The quake occurred at a latitude of 28.39 N and a longitude of 87.39 E, near the Xizang region of Tibet, and was reported at 6:27 PM IST on January 13, 2025.

This comes as the autonomous region continues to reel from the aftermath of the earlier quake, which left widespread destruction and displaced thousands of residents. Rescue operations are ongoing in affected areas, with authorities working to provide relief to survivors amidst harsh winter conditions.

Earlier on January 7, Tibet was rocked by a series of three earthquakes with the most powerful one being of 7.1 magnitude. Over 126 people were killed and over 300 were injured in the powerful earthquake. More than 1,000 houses were damaged in Tingri county, where the epicentre is located, state news agency Xinhua reported. Over 30,000 people were evacuated from the disaster.
