Damn! Too many earthquakes recently around the world!

May the deceased Rest In Peace! And speedy recovery to the wounded.

Just saw it on BBC, this area of earthquake was really close to our North-Eastern states. No tremors in India may be because of different tectonic plates.

RIP to the victims. Luckily, China seems to have a very efficient emergency response system so that's good.

There was an earthquake last week on the western edge of the Indian plate (Pakistan-Iran border); is this caused by the eastern edge of that plate, I wonder!
