4.3 quake 12 Feb 7:31 am (GMT +5)
the European-Mediterranean Seismological Centre (EMSC) reported a magnitude 4.3 quake in Pakistan near Dera Ghazi Khan, Dera Ghāzi Khān, Punjab, 34 minutes ago. The earthquake hit in the morning on Friday 12 February 2021 at 7:31 am local time at an intermediate to considerable depth of 290 km. Magnitude and other quake parameters can still change in the coming hours as the agency continues to process seismic data.
According to preliminary calculations, we do not expect that the quake was felt by many people and did not cause any damage. In Barkhan (pop. 8,800, 28 km away), Kohlu (pop. 11,100, 49 km away), Dajal (pop. 17,600, 89 km away), Dera Ghazi Khan (pop. 236,100, 91 km away), and Jampur (pop. 63,800, 100 km away), the quake was probably not felt.
