Egypt on tectonic plate affected by Indonesia and Colombia quakes
Dr. Basem Nabawi, head of the National Institute for Astronomical and Geophysical Research, emphasized that there is no scientific link between the recent earthquake in Indonesia and any impact on Egypt. Indonesia is situated on an active seismic belt, whereas Egypt lies on a different tectonic plate and experiences natural seismic activity at normal levels. He explained that the 5.5 magnitude earthquake in Indonesia did not result in any casualties. Egypt has experienced previous earthquakes, such as the Dushur earthquake in 1992 and the Gulf of Aqaba earthquake in 1995. The aftershocks from recent seismic events have been weak and imperceptible.
