Egypt experiences about 200 minor earthquakes yearly
A study conducted by the National Institute for Astronomical Research indicates that Egypt experiences around 200 earthquakes annually. Most of these are imperceptible and pose no threat, resulting from tectonic plate activity in the region. These earthquakes occur due to the release of energy within the Earth's crust, especially near the Gulf of Aqaba, where the African and Arabian plates converge. While the timing of earthquakes cannot be predicted, seismic waves can be detected after they occur. Experts emphasize the importance of implementing earthquake-resistant building standards to minimize their impact on populated areas.
