Pakistan experienced a magnitude 5.5 earthquake late Tuesday night, with the epicenter located 150 kilometers southwest of Quetta, the capital of Balochistan. Fortunately, no casualties or damages have been reported thus far.

The National Center of Seismology, a government organization in Pakistan, confirmed the earthquake's occurrence through a social media post on Wednesday. According to their message, the earthquake occurred at 2:57 pm on Tuesday, originating 150 kilometers beneath the surface. Tremors were felt in various parts of the country, including the capital Islamabad, Lahore, surrounding areas, and portions of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.

Subsequently, Pakistan-based Sama TV reported another earthquake striking the same area around 6:30 am. This earthquake registered a magnitude of 4.5 on the Richter scale, with its epicenter located 136 kilometers below the surface.

Despite the seismic activity, local authorities have not reported any damage or casualties stemming from either earthquake.

This recent event marks the fourth earthquake recorded in Pakistan this year. In January, two earthquakes of magnitude 4.3 and 6, and in February, one of magnitude 4.7, shook the country. As seismic activity continues, authorities remain vigilant in monitoring and responding to potential risks posed by earthquakes.
