Myanmar Tremors: 4.2 Magnitude Quake Shakes Border Regions
A 4.2 magnitude earthquake struck Myanmar in the early hours of Monday, August 4, 2025, according to the National Centre for Seismology (NCS). The NCS reported the quake’s occurrence.
While initial reports suggest the quake was centered in Myanmar, its impact on neighboring Indian states, particularly those bordering Myanmar, remains under assessment.
The NCS is currently collecting data to determine the full extent of the seismic event and any potential aftershocks.
This incident serves as a timely reminder of the seismic vulnerability of the region and the importance of preparedness for such natural disasters. Authorities in the northeastern states should review and reinforce disaster management plans, ensuring community awareness and response capabilities are robust.
