Myanmar, Oct 10 : A mild earthquake of magnitude 4.2 struck Myanmar early Friday morning, according to the National Centre for Seismology (NCS).
The tremor occurred at 5:53 a.m. IST at a depth of 10 kilometres, the NCS said in a post on X (formerly Twitter). The coordinates of the quake were latitude 18.49°N and longitude 93.80°E.
“EQ of M: 4.2, On: 10/10/2025 05:53:57 IST, Lat: 18.49 N, Long: 93.80 E, Depth: 10 Km, Location: Myanmar,”
the NCS stated.
This marks the fourth earthquake reported in Myanmar this week, indicating a spell of consistent seismic activity in the region.
Earlier, on October 6, an earthquake of magnitude 3.6 was recorded at a depth of 73 kilometres, followed by another magnitude 3.7 tremor the same day at 88 kilometres depth. Both events were confirmed by the NCS on social media.
Before that, on October 3, the NCS reported a magnitude 3.3 earthquake in Myanmar, occurring at a depth of 90 kilometres.
While all the quakes were of low to moderate intensity, they highlight increased seismic movement in Myanmar and nearby regions along the Indo-Myanmar fault zone, an area prone to frequent tectonic shifts.
So far, no reports of damage or casualties have been issued following any of the recent tremors.
