Recent seismic activity, registering at a magnitude of 4.4 on the Richter scale, reverberated through several cities, inducing widespread panic, including in the federal capital. The Seismological Center has detailed that the earthquake affected different regions in Islamabad, Azad Kashmir, and KPK. Notably, the epicenter was pinpointed in the southwest of Kashmir, with a recorded depth of 11 km.

Just two days earlier, a similar incident unfolded near Islamabad, with tremors measuring 3.2 in magnitude.
