Kohlu rattled by third earthquake in two days
QUETTA: A fresh earthquake rattled the Kohlu sector of Balochistan on Saturday, the third such tremor to hit the area within two days, according to the National Seismic Monitoring Centre (NSMC) in Quetta.
The latest quake registered a magnitude of 4.3 on the Richter scale, with its epicentre located 40 kilometres north of Kohlu at a depth of 15 kilometres — shallower than the previous tremor.
However, no immediate reports of victims or structural damage have been received so far.
The renewed seismic activity follows two separate tremors the previous day, leaving locals unsettled and wary of further aftershocks.
The most significant of those earlier quakes — measuring 5.1 in magnitude — caused tangible destruction. At least three individuals, including a child, sustained injuries and approximately 70 houses were partially damaged in Kingri, according to Abdul Razaq Khajak, the Deputy Commissioner of Musa Khel.
