A magnitude 5.6 earthquake hit Xizang, China, on Monday, with the epicenter located 10 km below the Earth's surface, according to the German Research Center for Geosciences (GFZ).
A magnitude 5.6 earthquake struck the Xizang region of China on Monday, sending tremors through the area. The German Research Center for Geosciences (GFZ) reported that the quake's epicenter was located 10 km (6.21 miles) below the Earth's surface.
While details about damages or casualties have yet to be confirmed, seismic activity in this area is not uncommon, with Xizang—home to the Tibetan Plateau—experiencing frequent tremors due to its location along major fault lines.
Local authorities have yet to issue a formal statement on the impact of the earthquake.
The region’s vulnerability to earthquakes highlights the ongoing seismic risk in parts of China, particularly in areas located near tectonic boundaries.
