A 4.8 magnitude earthquake struck Myanmar early this morning, with tremors reported in several parts of Assam. The earthquake, which occurred at 00:53:35 IST, had its epicenter at latitude 24.68° N and longitude 94.87° E, at a depth of 106 kilometers.
In Assam, residents experienced mild shaking, prompting some to step outside their homes as a precaution. The region, located in a seismically active zone, often faces tremors due to tectonic movements.
The Assam State Disaster Management Authority (ASDMA) is closely monitoring the situation and has reassured the public that help will be provided if needed. Authorities have also advised residents to follow safety protocols, including securing heavy objects, staying away from weak structures, and keeping emergency kits ready.
Further updates will follow as authorities continue to assess the situation.
