Countries affected included India, Myanmar, Indonesia, and Tajikistan, each experiencing varying levels of tremor intensity. Earthquake Highlights: April 13, 2025 Tajikistan: 6.1 magnitude quake at 9:54 AM IST Indonesia: 5.8 magnitude quake in Simeulue Regency at 11:09 AM Myanmar: 5.1 magnitude tremor hits Meiktila at 7:54 AM India (Himachal Pradesh): 3.4 magnitude quake in Mandi at 9:18 AM Papua New Guinea: 5.79 magnitude earthquake (regional tremor) Tajikistan: Double Quake Rattles the Region The National Center for Seismology (NCS) con?rmed that a magnitude 6.1 earthquake struck Tajikistan at 9:54 AM IST. Shortly after, a second tremor measuring 3.9 followed at 10:36 AM IST, both occurring at a depth of 10 km—a shallow depth that ampli?es ground shaking. Damage Report: Videos from the region show structural damage in retail stores. No casualties have been con?rmed yet. Coordinates: Lat: 38.86 N, Long: 70.61 E Depth: 10 km Myanmar: Aftershocks of a Tragedy Myanmar continues to reel from the devastating 7.7 magnitude earthquake on March 28, which claimed over 3,600 lives. On April 13, another magnitude 5.1 earthquake struck Meiktila city—one of the strongest aftershocks recorded since the tragedy. Relief Efforts Ongoing
The Indian Embassy in Myanmar distributed 15 tonnes of food supplies and equipment to local communities. The Indian Army, under Operation Brahma, deployed engineering teams to assist in rebuilding efforts. Epicenter: Near Mandalay Time: 7:54 AM IST Depth: 10 km India: Mandi, Himachal Pradesh Feels the Shakes In Himachal Pradesh, tremors were recorded in Mandi district, falling under seismic zone 5—an area with high vulnerability. Magnitude: 3.4 Time: 9:18 AM IST Depth: 5 km (shallow and potentially dangerous) Authorities con?rmed no damage or loss of life. Indonesia: Another Wake-Up Call Indonesia, located on the notorious “Ring of Fire”, experienced a 5.8 magnitude earthquake in Simeulue Regency. Time: 11:09 AM IST Depth: Moderate, around 10 km Impact: No major damage reported yet The region remains on high alert given the frequent seismic activity. What Experts Say
According to global seismology experts, closely timed regional tremors can sometimes signal interconnected tectonic stress release. While these events are not necessarily linked causally, their proximity in time and space may indicate heightened seismic risks in the region. Union Commerce Minister Piyush Goyal urged industries to adopt earthquake- resistant designs and embrace modular, sustainable infrastructure to mitigate future risks. Did You Know? Shallow earthquakes (depth < 10 km) tend to cause more surface damage than deeper ones due to stronger ground motion. Regions in seismic zones 4 and 5 should always remain prepared with emergency kits, safe evacuation plans, and awareness programs. Stay Alert, Stay Safe Whether you’re in a high-risk zone or simply monitoring global seismic activity, it’s crucial to stay informed. Keep this page bookmarked for LIVE Earthquake Updates in Asia.
